Hi juliemaria,

well don't do anything hun, :-) , go with the flow and what your body is telling you to do...or not as the case maybe!!

i sometimes think we have to actually stop fighting for a while and allow ourselves to be out of sorts, today is a s**t day so don't fight it what's the point, curl up cosy and nap if that's what your body is telling you.

We have enough to cope with on a daily basis...remember the house work etc will always be there tomorrow... the damn thing just won't go away lol

take care

jan xx

thanks jan xx I always seem to feel guilty for lazing around, and i wish my family would understand more or take time to read about fibro, they do laugh at me when i hurt all over, i am sure they think i am just making it up. oh well life goes on, sending soft hugs to you jan :)

you're welcome xx,

i had a stern talk to myself and came to the conclusion, if i hurt i need to rest, and if anyone says anything...well tough luck, that's just their ignorance. It is a terrible disease to explain to anyone who hasn't got it, same as anything really. how do you explain the pain of childbirth to some one who hasn't had kids, puts it into perspective really.

Yes life goes on and we cope as best we can.

Take care and soft hugs to you

Jan xx

hi, rest and do as little as you can. our bodies let us know when we've had enough. I pushed it just a "tiny bit more" on monday and am still paying for it. I was "stuck" in my rise & recline chair - in pain but nothing would move. normally, I can wait it out knowing it'll ease that wee bit and I can struggle to bed However, 4 and a half hours later , I was desperate for the loo and the pain was getting to the desperate, need to be out of it level. I forced the move, body "screaming" with pain it took a-g-e-s!

If they have technology to prove that plants feel pain, surely they could hook up humans!!

regards, sandra
