FIBRO!!!!

hi

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2023 along with adult ADHD, life has been rough since then as I feel I can’t work at the moment due I get really dizzy 🙈!! I’m on medication for my ADHD but no medication works for my fibromyalgia, the worst part of it for me is the fatigue it’s so intense, I do get really down at times and feel very lonely. On good days I can walk miles and feel really good and positive about myself, I still need to learn more about fibromyalgia and start living life again 🙏

Hello and welcome, yes fibro can be challenging for sure, I managed a trip out yesterday not walked far just visiting one place , today I feel like I’ve been run over 😟so we do get here how it can pull you down some days ,this forum is so good too chat and ask advice so I really hope you find it helpful. Fatique can play a part and you just have too rest when it strikes ,and I always hope the next day is better, I’ve learnt so much here the last few years xx
