Hello. I'm aged 53 years and a northerner who has several health problems including type two diabetes and have recently been diagnosed with diabetes neuropathy. I'm physically disabled due to fibromyalgia and diabetes neuropathy but I'm better known for smiling.

I'm sorry to hear about your health problems. The neuropathy can be unpleasant. But I don't think many of us can give you much help, as this is a site for those of us with heart problems. Diabetes UK might be able to help you find a forum for your condition. Good luck!

Well good on you for smiling because I know from personal experience that you have a lot of pain. I don't think this heart forum is the right one for you but diabetes UK shoudl be able to help. I haven't found much actual help for Fibro online, just a lot of horror stories and moans about things that don't help. Try ukfibromyalgia.com
