Thank you that brought tears to my eyes in a good way though people around listen and try to understand or say they do but sometimes wonder how can they when I don't get it myself 😂 I've tried Pilates but can't be reliable to always be able to go
Tried acupuncture and cupping costly so now I swim only thing that calms it slightly.
For me this came on out of the blue well I thought it did but looking back there were signs something wasn't right and with lots of stress which I thought I was ok with obviously wasn't so woke up pain in legs arms could hardly walk fatigued just general off feeling to MRI every blood test going to a diagnosis of fibromyalgia which I hate but that's the bit I struggle with can't do same stuff I used to do it's a change of direction now. Yes the physio said chondronitis a bugger to get rid off great so with the widespread pain plus early menopause since I was 30 now 40 who pulled this out of the bag I can do this I keep telling myself and not to focus on pain it's hard to except that I have this and may never go it's changed the way I think and feel I get anxious bout health bloody google and anxious bout what I can and can't do but I'll do it not going to let this win just nice to know I can say what I feel to someone who knows rather than thinks they do thank you so much

Yes I too think that one day I could wake up and be able to put my knickers on without using my toes to flip them up to my hand 😂 It's amazing how I get up in pain and keep moving it tends to not be as bad but if I sit down with my morning coffee I can hardly stand up after.

I don't know why, but i'm always thinking i'll wake up and the pain will be gone. I guess that's what keeps me going.

I can't wait to go to bed but it takes forever to get out of bed. Pain is worse in the mornings.

Hi yes I take amptripaline at night and ibropufen to take edge off they did give all sorts of pills but I said I'd rather manage it and not disguise it I still like to be Able to function I've got four girls and work full time so I've changed my diet to gluten free and cut out certain foods which has help I'm going to health shop on wkend to look at some vitamins hoping hey might help
I've started putting myself first and not cutting myself in half to please others all time I swim three times a week swimming has really helped me mentually I take myself out of stressful situations as as doctor thinks this has all come on from overload of stress which looking back yes I had lots and menopause to deal with and then you think well were was me time so I've changed a lot to adjust to this without stressing to much hey ho onwards and upwards I do feel more relieved knowing there are others to share this with or to swap tips do you take any vitamins or meds
