Aww, kingkurt. I havent been able to make a fry up for a couple of years now. My hands just cant do it. My partner makes everything like that as i just havent got the head to get timings so things get burnt all the time and it stresses me out.

Cereals good for you though lol.

hugs, kel xxxx

Hey kingkurt, gentle hugs.

I know how you feel exactly though it's usually egg on toast for me - my legs will not last that short length of time standing in the kitchen - so it's usually cereal for me. However, today is a really bad day and I can only make the 10 steps to my downstairs Throne Room before said legs start wobbling and giving out. As the kitchen is huge and about 15 steps to where I need to get the cereal etc., the actual effort involved to do it and get back to my chair would never happen as I'd be on the kitchen floor in a helpless heap - and I've no-one to help - So, today's MEALS will be be chilled, filtered water from the fridge, which is right by the door into the kitchen from the living room and exactly 10 steps!

Good job I adore drinking water isn't it?

Take care,

Love,

Carol xx

Aww... KingKurt , if it's any consolation you're not alone here on the forum. I haven't managed fryups since I started suffering from FMs. Can't even manage toast without a lot of pain actually, takes too long to butter the toast.

But on the plus side, there are soo many different wonderful cereals out there to choose from! :) and breakfast muffins/hot cross buns/pop tarts if you fancy a treat and can manage the toaster!

Hi all

Thanks for the comments

I ended up walking down to the cafe and had a fry up. Its only down the road and I had never been in there before but expect to be in there alot more if this condition gets worse and as long as I can still walk.

When I get bad I feel very cold almost like I have the flu and need some hot food

yep my skin goes ice cold and my face goes a funny grey colour.....weird petal
