About Me
I am 28, married and unable to work due to fm. I believe I have had fibro for many years but only recently been diagnosed. This is mostly my fault as I only ever went to gp about one symptom at a time instead of listing them all! I also have abdominal adhesions from countless surgerys a few of which have gone wrong and left me with horrendous abdo pain. I have ibs, ceoliacs disease back pain, depression, panic attacks and am generally unwell. I try to stay positive but it gets hard when fibro affects your life in so many ways! One person I havn't mentioned who I should is my wonderfull husband. He supports me and does all the things I can no longer do as well as holding down a full time job. I still havn't heard him complain! I love him very much. Well thats more or less me.

Close Fibromyalgia
I believe I have had fm for many years but only recently been diagnosed. I am still trying to convince myself that I am fine and will get better. Deep down I know this will not happen. I take a fair bit of medication trying desperatly to get back to work. At the moment that is still a long way of.
Treatments
- Elavil Working / Worked
- Although this does not work for the pain it has been helping me to sleep which is a great relief. I have had no side effects although I am on an extremely low dose
- Heat Somewhat Helpful
- Although this helped in the short term it was to expensive to keep using fulltime
- Morphine Working / Worked
- This was the first day i have had no pain in many yeasrs. Unfortunately it made me so sick i had to stop using it.
- TENS Somewhat Helpful
- This only really worked on my lower back pain but not long term.
Close Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Recently diagnosed with c.f.s and looking for more info and support.
Treatments
- Pain Management Clinic Somewhat Helpful
- Most of what I learned helped me to manage my condition better, however I am desperate to get back to work.
