Hey everyone

I haven't been on for a while as things were going ok with my fibro,but not now

I went to Tenerife for a lovely hoilday with my family,arrived at a beautiful villa my hubby and son hired for us all,it was fantastic arrived on the Sat late around 10pm, had a quick bite to eat then bed it was a long day and the kids were shattered and so was I very sore.

Got up next morning having slept quite well concidering the strange bed,up showered dressed in my swimsuit ready for a day by the pool with the family.

Next morning Monday again not too bad a night we all went out for a drive to see what was around and go for some food shopping, had some brunch, then back to the villa all was well happy kids,meant happy Gran ,then bam I was on the stairs with my left foot facing the wrong way,I've very badly fractured my tibula and fibula one of which is broken twice,I'm in total agony doped up on pain relieve for it so if the grammar and spelling is sort of out I hope u understand.

so here we go up to 6 weeks almost bed bound can't use crutches too painful plus my balance is shocking now,and have a whole lot of plates, pins,screws in my leg.this won't help my fibro one little bit just when I thought I'd turned a little bit of a corner.

Hugs

Hi Lizzie57 , Bless your 💙! ! I must say I know how you feel...7 years ago shattered my ankle, hospital for 6 days, 8 weeks to recover?? Now 23 pins, and 2 plates and PAIN!! I do wish you the best. I stayed with my friend who took the very best care of me as OH could not have done the things she did, well could gave but not the way she done them! ! As I did nothing but relax for 8 weeks it healed great!! I wish you the same outcome.Best advice:Let others do for you when you can. Take care and let me know how it goes. Peck.🐤

Ohh,no so sorry and it was going so well too.

Take care and get better soon. 😊

Lizzie57 I am so sorry this has happened to you and hope it heals quickly I can imagine the pain you are in spending 6 weeks in bed will be worth it if it heals properly as you said over turning a corner you never no what's going to happen

Sending gentle hugs
