Been suffering for over 8 months with symptoms of fibro and finally gor a rheumatology appointment in a months time. Yesterday I got up and completely keeled over, the pain in my hips and knees is unbearable. I'm finding it so hard to work as a nursery nurse, its hard holding the children, getting down to their level, even walking most days. I'm never free of pain and cry or sleep most days, not sure I can last another month. Anyone else have balance issues or am I going mad?
