Hope today finds you all better than yesterday . Regarding pain
I've had fybromyalgia since 2004 and I'm always in chronic pain ,chronic fatigue digestive disorders and put on weight 😁😁😁due to meds and that I can't move around
Like I used to . I had to spot working because the pain got so bad , it affected me emotionally .
I have 5 children all grown up now . At first they didn't understand me and sd I was making it up but as the years went by . They researched it and now they all help out
And are wonderful and helpful .infact my younger daughter who is 20 became my carer 3years ago ..... She an angel . I've been looking for people with the same illness
To speak with as some days I get very low . But I always think positive now . At one point in my life I wanted to end it as the pain was overpowering my mind . But my GP is excellent and has supported me over the years and refused me to appropriate doctors .
👍🏼🙋🏻🙋🏻🙋🏻🙋🏻⛈⛈⛈⛈⛈there many storms in my mind as the migraines are bad .but I take step by step .

Hello and welcome, Im 62 and had fibro for about 30 yrs. mine didnt suddenly appear but gradually crept up on me a bit at a time so i wasnt diagnosed until about 4 yrs ago.
I love this site and everyone on it, they keep me sane ish.
I sincerely hope that you are feeling as well as you possibly can be today? Welcome to the forum and it is wonderful to make your acquaintance. I can see that my colleague, PainfulPixie has given you the link to our mother site, which hosts lots of useful Fibro information on the site.
I am so genuinely sorry to read of your struggling and suffering with Fibro but i am sincerely delighted to read that you have a wonderful support network with your family. I want to genuinely wish you all the best of luck.
Good morning my dear friend ,Thankyou for your message ad making e feal welcome . Yes for years I struggled with so much pain ad also now .
And no one really understood me . They kept saying ELISA you look so well .
Ad yet I'd say I'm in so much pain " what you "? Yes . I'd explain I ave FM
But they sd " take a pain killer ! Well wish it was that simple . .
My GP been excellent ad sent me to the write people for help .
Dear . I could never understand why I was sent to a phyciatrist .for many years coz of my fybromyalgia ......
It baffles me ...
My GP sd I had many horrible traumas over the years and when I'm stressed. I get flare ups So may be just to talk about my traumas . Well I thank him for sending me to the people that are able to help .and it's good to talk .... With the write people that understand .hope you are well
Thank you, I think it is wonderful when you have a good GP as so many members on the forum have GPs who know nothing about Fibro! Please take care of yourself
Good evening Ken yes it's so important to have a good GP
He is a very understanding docter , and everyone is registered with him . Because he really cares for people needs .
And it's so important when a GP looks deep into an illness
As my GP explainers why and how and how to try and help .
But soon I will be moving to Italy . But I will come and go . To see my children . They are so helpful now . As we looked up fybro together and what symptoms are . And they felt sad that I had to go threw so much pain .
But dear Ken I'm a positive person I always turn a negative into a positive and I love helping others also . We all need encouragement and understanding and also a shoulder to cry on sometimes . Thankyou . Do you have FM Ken dear? .
Yes, I have Fibro among other medical conditions, thank you for asking. I genuinely hope that you have a wonderful and pain free time when you move it Italy
I'm sorry you have to suffer also with this painful illness . Thankyou regarding my move to Italy .ive become so anxious but it will be ok .im making a leap of faith into the unknown . But it's to help the community out there in the village . They are all poor
And are in need of spiritual guidance .
We are all in need of that . I believe if we have spiritual guidance . And pray and meditate on helping other s it takes our mind of our worries .
That personal thought . I do lots of meditation .and relaxation . Always with balance .as when I'm fealing really over stressed .i detress . Like take time out
To speak with God . And he's been really good to me over the years .... Helped me cope . With my situation ....and I pray for others ...one of my sons is a missionary and together with his with go to Uganda to help people out there .and to Poland and he's always on the phone asking if I'm in need
Sometimes he says mum tell how ur night has been ! Or how are you today ! Is there anything we can do
So just this alone helpers me threw
Anyway sweety today is another day yesterday's pains gone vanished . And I hope today brings less pain for you and all those beautiful people who suffer FM .
You are kind stay focusesd positive . Grazie as we say in Italy . 👍🏼🙋🏻🙏🏽🙋🏻🙏🏽🙋🏻🌺🌺🌺🌺

I was diagnosed 20 years ago but since September last year I've been quite bad. I've lost my mobility and have been on crutches ever since so my life has changed a lot. I've had to adjust to a different way of doing things but it's a mater of having to not wanting too.
Please keep in touch, I know how you feel. We can help each other.
