Hi, I have been recently diagnosed with Fibro, after suffering for years thinking I was going mad! I was back and fore the doctor who couldn't find anything wrong. I had tests for everything!! I was depressed, in pain and felt like I was on another planet! Thank goodness someone took me seriously at last. I am in pain from head to toe. Feet feel like they're on fire. Some days I just want to give up. I've got plenty of reasons to keep going though so I try and ignore the pain and get on with things. It's nice to have someone to talk to who understands what it feels like, thanks guys xx

Hi Dag, its a very frustrating illness isn't it. Never mind, you have found common ground now on this site so you will not feel so alone. There will always be someone who has walked a little way in your shoes and knows exactly how you feel.

Take care, Angela xx
