Hello again.

Hello everyone,

Quite a few months ago, I came onto the site to ask for some advice, on behalf of my partner who has Myalgia. Here is an update.

He is still in a lot of pain, sometimes like yesterday, he ups the dose of his medication - 10mg yesterday. But he found the energy to tidy his bungalow and do a bit of gardening.

He recently fullfilled an ambition to buy a proper motorcycle (he has a scooter). He felt that if he didn't do it now, he may not have been well enough to have one in a few years. It took me a long time to come round to his way of thinking - I walked in his shoes, you could say. He is getting out and about on the bike, as much as he can.

He recently described a new symptom. His finger tips felt like they had splinters in them. He even tried to gouge out a splinter, but didn't find one. I am trying not to think of the worst senarios.

There is more I want to say, but I'll leave it for the time being. Happy New Year everyone

Hi

Happy New Year to you both too.

Bet he's loving his new bike and I'm so pleased he can enjoy it!!

At the moment I'm in a lot of pain from my many conditions, hence why I'm still awake!! I have an hour or less sleep per night due to pain!! It's a living nightmare!! I do hope your partner sleeps well. Love and hugs to you both Lynne xxxx
