Moi a.k.a Lakshmi Rajagopalan. I am married to Guru 🙂 ), my rock with RP and everything that comes with it, mom to 4 lovely boys, Vidyuth, Vishruth, Rocky (RIP) and Rambo 🙂 who keep me on my feet all day (& night) long.
Fiercely independent with a rebelling streak, known for my tomboyish traits, nicknamed “Phoolan Devi” in college…..
Love all things organic, casual, comfy & earthy (READ: PJs and t-shirts)
Music and Books are an absolute necessity to me survival.
When faced with a roadblock or a distraction, I rant for sometime (DUH!!!) and remember my mantra
“The expected is just the beginning. The unexpected is what changes our lives………EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED.” and
“Low expectations lead to less disappointments….”
I started this blog as a sounding board for my thots, observations,and sometimes my experiences from real/reel life…….but now it is my way of coping with Chronic Illness, a small step that allows me to retain my sanity despite the maddening pain and everything that comes with it.
Here’s hoping for a less-pain…..eventually pain-free day and life.
Best,
Laks

Isn’t the real life itself a reel life, at times?
Yup 🙂
Hi Lakshmi
I read your post about Fibromyalgia – my wife is having exactly the same side effects as your. We are planning a family and wanted to check with you if you had this condition during pregnancy? Also, are you trying Ayurveda as a cure?

Vicky
Hi Vicky, Thanks for your message. I am going to explore Ayurveda soon. I was not diagnosed with FM during my pregnancy.
