Hi there, your partner sounds very laid back ,is he going to sort out the phone bill for you?...my OH never worries and he sorts things... I,ve been with him 20 years I had fibro when I met him and over the years I have slowly come to realise that he is right, and I have learned to relax more, my sons mobile phone came in this week more than £30 more than usual my OH found out what it was before I even knew and my son was running round like a headless chicken panicking ... I also have osteoarthritis and my OH doesn't say anything he just quietly does things he knows I can't do ... He doesn't offer me continual reassurances he is just there, maybe your partner is the same and just does things when they crop up. Don't worry about not replying on here...and try to relax
so sorry to hear of your woes. I truly understand. my hubby doesn't understand my aches and pains either. most of my pressure points get very sore and my left hip too. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia many years back and have learnt to live with it. take care.
