“In the spring I have counted one hundred and thirty-six different kinds of weather inside of four and twenty hours”, Mark Twain 
Well, here it is! Only ten days until it’s officially spring! One would never know it living as I do in Nova Scotia. One day it is -10C and the next day it can go up as high as +10C. Then it snows again but the next day it rains. Some days there may be sun; often it is dreary and dark. Erratic weather like this is the worst for me and results in flare-ups of fibromyalgia. I can awaken in the middle of the night knowing that a storm is approaching as my body is quivering with pain and light-headed dis-ease.
“Sometimes questions are more important than answers” , Nancy Willard. 
One of the major challenges that many people with FMS face is depression. The question that I pose here is which of the major daily struggles of living with fibromyalgia come first? Which of the ‘Gang of Four’ symptoms: pain, sleeplessness, fatigue or depression (the four most common plagues of fibromyalgia) first precipitates the vicious cycle ?
