i suffer extreme bum pain saw a bowel specialist who said it is a condition called protalgia fugax. google it and see if your symptoms are same. it excruciating bouts lasting twenty minutes or an horrible ache for hours. its the sphincter muscle going in to spasm. yours may be different to mine but thought i would mention it as i have suffered for years and gp always said it was just contipation or some other nonsense.

ps i put a post on here before a quiet a few of us suffer it. the pain is so bad at times you'd like to be put down! LOL

Happe: I suffer from Proctalgia Fugax occasionally, usually seems to be brought on by eating foods with ginger added, especially Chinese dishes. It can be extremely painful if not treated. I use a a few puffs of a Salbutimol (eg Ventolin) inhaler as soon as I feel the pain starting, and it relieves it within a minute or two, sometimes before it really begins to cramp - a life-saver! I keep an inhaler in the bathroom and one in the car for emergencies.

Hi gerisly, sorry to hear about your bum my hips hurt terribly as i'm sitting down here. at the mo cause i'm getting even more tired i'm beginning to get even more confused than usually am.

do you ever get muscle spasms?

[gloglo]

i'm gonna have to go up now cause my bum is getting numb sitting on this seat and i'm feeling rather light headed. good night. xx

[Hidden]

O yes i bloody do,i get them everywhere but mostly effected in my hands.fingers and feet.on a morning when i get out of bed(if iv been to bed)its hard to put my feet on the floor cos they spasm so much.altho it hurts me i have to sqeeze them to get them going again...shit in it.iv had a memory test at docs and she said im fine but that was before i joined this site(and read bout how FM and how it effects the memory).until i got on this site i new hardly anything and thought all the syptoms i was having were in my mind....it turns out im not mad,bet uv felt the same.i ment to tell doc bout the effects FM can have on memory but guess what I FORGOT lol.i do get a little confused,i`ll start to go do something and forget bout it and do something else.iv done things like put milk in cupboard etc.sometimes i find it hard to reconise objects.i can be looking for the remote and look at it a thousand times.get up look all over only to come back and there it is on the coffee table...your not on your own love.since been on this site iv started to right down things to shove under the docs nose and say"see im not mad and if i am im not the only 1"....when did you start this site?are you still there,lv fm me xx

Ahhh!!! had just wrote a whole load of stuff and it didn't post there was a server problem .

sorry i wasn't there to reply last night needed to lay down my legs and hips were hurting. darling i can't remember when i started on this site. was just this year though i think.

by the way i know what you mean about loosing things and putting things in the wrong place. dropping things is whats bothering me at the mo i just can't seem to hold things well like cartons, jars, plates etc i now have to take extra care i can't seem to get a tight grip on things. i don't know if this is to do with my carpel tunnel operations or what; i had them done about three years ago. gonna have to see doc about this cause its getting worst. treated myself to a lovely jar of ginger preserve the other day and before i could even get it into the cupboard i dropped it and even broke one of my favourite mugs the same day. :(.

need to go into town today but not feeling quite right somehow not sure whats wrong but just don't feel quite right.

hope you have a better day today love. take care. chat you later.xxx

[gloglo]

Hi diddle;

the thing i'm finding right now is that i'm getting ratty because i'm tired it's like there is a battle going on inside of me. my body will say its tired but my mind will say no your not just a bit longer i just want to do this or see this. i wish to god someone would come up with a cure for this thing it's driving me crazy i don't even know what sort of person i am anymore. i use to be able to say i'm like this or like that now its all about pain and sleepless nights. i have to get back to work some how i need something else to define myself by.But like i said to the lady at my ESA interview whose going to want to employ someone who is unpredictable; someone whose health can change by the hour, oh lord even saying it makes me to cringe.

Anyway going to see if i can make it to town. have a blessed day diddle love. xx

I can't sleep either. It's now 3:42 a.m. My G.P. won't prescribe me sleeping meds.......Why?? I'm looking for an MD who understands fibromyalgia. Mine doesn't. Oh, and I have tried lots of non-med ways "to get a good night's sleep" but nothing works.
