Doctors and tinnitus
Sometimes doctors get a bit of a bad press on this forum, saying there’s no cure and their patients, suffering as we do, find this dismissive and unhelpful. I’d like to share with you my experience with my doctor. Seven years ago exactly I had a blocked ear, had an appointment with doctor so that, in

I am an Old Age Encyclopedia
Hi all I have so many things wrong with me but I still keep going. I am not any good at spelling the names of things that I have But if you need to know I will have a go. Fibro is one and there is no getting away from it, I have told myself to keep off the hard pain killers, which left me at the time

After 4 months of persevering with c25k and managing to run 5k three times a week, I have now developed severe hip pain, the speed this pain has developed is frightening, it has gone from an ache to agony and I am struggling to walk.

Pain relief
At the start, this is not meant tobe preachy or judgemental. I apologise in avance, if this offends any 1. Im 6 months in to fibro discovery, and see so many new people every day. This is predominately for newbies. I have seen how many long existing sufferers are on strong meds for pain relief. It terrifies

Mind games
I was surprised at myself this week. After managing to run my first half marathon just over a week ago I lost confidence and mojo. It sort of came from no where but also somewhere 🥴. Yes I had an extraordinarily painful back at the end of the run and it took 24 hours of rest and strong pain killers

What should I take after my covid 19 jab?
I realise that I have a narrative wrapped around my fears of having my first covid 19 vaccination next week. My current narrative goes like this. I imagine the jab in my left arm, the arrival of a syringe-full of non-self vaccine. Naturally my arm’s macrophages will be mobilised to the threat, like pac

Waiting in pain for the laparoscopy date
I was in emergency a few times due to fainting and very severe pain. I heard from them that I should not come any more to hospital, but wait at home for the letter, and in case of pains I should take painkillers because they would not help me. This is a drama. My fiance works in the afternoon and not

Bleeding after endometrial biopsy
Looking for some reassurance… I had a very painful endometrial biopsy 5 days ago. The next two days I had barely any spotting but immense pain requiring opioid pain killers. The pain continued the next day with no spotting at all. Now, with pain continuing, I’m experiencing period-like bleeding 5 days

Terrible knee pain
Hi everyone, I’ve completed week two, run two, which is a miracle for me as I’ve never ever been a runner. I’m very proud of myself 😊 However, I started getting knee pain after my second run and its gradually got worse. I’ve increased my rest days and I stretch after my runs but the pain has been so
