Hello davesplace,

Welcome to the forum, I am also quite recently joined. I am diagnosed with fibromyalgia also. It be interesting to know about your daily life, what do you find hard and how do you manage it.

Thanks

Linda

I struggle most days walking , I get severe pain on the tops of my feet , I am very forgetful I forget some words in a conversation, I put that down to lack of sleep ? My arms shoulders elbows ache every day , the backs of my legs hurt , and I get a overwhelming feeling to sleep , my eyes become really heavy and I need to sleep , but I try and ride it , that actually is probably what makes me really tired, Dave

Hi Davesplace

Welcome to the form you will find that a lot of the people are here for you in good and bad times. I only joined the form last year and I can't begin to thank the people on here enough for all the help and support that they have given to me. I am very sure that they will do the same for you. I truly wish you as well as you can be and I hope the pain doesn't get you down to much. Take good care my friend. Jan101 xxxx

Hi Davesplace

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 have pasted you a link below to our mother site, FMA UK which hosts loads of useful Fibro information:

I want to sincerely wish you all the best of luck and please take care of yourself my friend.

All my hopes and dreams for you

Ken
