Fibromyalgia sufferers.

[lcl (deleted)]

I've recently been diagnosed with this illness and have been looking around for information.

One of the biggest difficulties I have noticed for people suffering with fibromyalgia is explaining it to others.
It's no fun when nobody believes you are ill but you are suffering.

Yesterday my wife found me this website that, I believe, could help in explaining to your family and friends what is actually wrong with you and the difficulties you may have.

I suggest writing it down, printing it off or just offering the link to those you wish to understand you better.

I hope this can be of use to somebody else.

`i to have been diagosed with fibromyalgia 2 years ago on top of my other health issues.
i hate it my father and uncle both suffer with it also.
i realy need to find people who understand what im going through, most days im house bound due to pain the meds no longer work for me not even morphine.
i have other disabilties which make walking almost impossable which makes me parolized from waiste down at time sometimes hours to days the hospital specialist dont know what the cause of this. however i damaged my L4&L5 discs almost 9 years ago and mri showed they are disintergrating so specialist wont do surgery cos of as he put it risks as when he gave me 4 steriod injections into back i became parolized for 6 weeks.
i have arthritus in my spine and hips, has spread into wristsand hands due to years of having to use crutches and now have a wheelchair and mobility scooter .

ops seemed to end up woffeling on.
