Sorry for moaning but my knees, hips and ankles hurt so much and ive had all my meds....God i hate fibro! Got such a busy day tomorrow but does my fibro care? no it does not......tomorrow is a massive day for me, my 14 year old son who has Aspergers syndrome leads his football team onto the pitch to play the first of the 3 finals they have qualified in this season ( first club in history!) But my pain wont behave....i feel so angry that the pain is taking the pleasure is should feel away from me and all im thinking is....how am i going to get through the day?

Hi all, after 18 years of FMS I finally got some kip and am now sleepin (almost) like a baby! Courtesy of 75 - 100mg Pregablin each night. Might not work for everyone but I felt an immediate difference and get to sleep at least 7 hours. While the kids have been off for easter Ive even been waking up at 7ish, taking my Tramadol, then back to sleep for another couple of hours - bliss! Sleep is so important to your mental health. Only went on the drug in September and it took a few weeks to start having an effect on my joints (about 7 actually), but biggest change was in my sleeping and mood. Made me feel like I can cope with anything my fibro throws at me! x
