Hi Sarah, welcome to the group. Sorry to hear you’ve been suffering for so long. It’s hard being in pain constantly isn’t it? What medication are you taking at the moment? 😀😀

Hi, sorry to hear how you have been suffering. I was trying to type what medicines I’m on but I can’t remember how to spell them! Mind gone blank. Anyway, hello and thinking of you x

I’m so sorry. It’s horrid but thankfully more and more people are recognising its existence and will hopefully soon be recognised as a disability. I have just had a huge fibro flairup and it’s unimaginable how awful it is

Hi Sallyspot and welcome to the forum.

If you feel you're medication isn't helping with your pain speak to your GP and ask if they will try you on something else. xx

Hi Sarah, I know how you feeling. Please tell me some of your pain areas to see if I’m having the same ones.
