I DREAM OF HAVING A LONG LONG SLEEP.

I DREAM OF NO MORE PAIN.

I DREAM OF PEOPLE UNDERSTANDING.

I DREAM OF COMPASSION

I DREAM OF THE PERSON I USE TO BE.

I DREAM OF WAKING UP TO MY OLD LIFE, AND HOW THINGS USE TO BE.

THEN I WAKE UP TO FIND IT WAS ALL A BAD DREAM.

I AM ME AGAIN WITH MY CHRONIC CONDITION.

    Hi Kaz

    I can't even remember when I last felt absolutely fine

    As I read that, I thought, if i could have just one of those dreams which one would I choose? What is the most important?

    I could not pick one over another as each one is as demeaning as the next....

    its a shame we have to wake up to fibro cause its such a lovely dream to have about the person we once was and its a shame that its not a reality instead of a dream but i would love to dream that dream and hope my medication has been sent to the pharmacy as im not sleeping to good was meant to have had it yesterday but my doctors did not send it over and there not very understanding they dont understand that im in constant pain and when i cant sleep it makes it so much worse it even makes me cry and im not ashamed to admit that but i just wish people could be more understanding and could be educated better where fibro is concearned

    What medication has helped with fibromyalgia.? I'm on Pregablin and suffering with the side effects. Tried amitryptiline which did help sleep but not really the chronic pain. I had to give up work feeling pretty useless now. I'm due to travel with my daughter and don't want to let her down by being in pain. The Pregablin is helping the pain but I'm feeling low and having mood swings. Also feel very sick all the time and can't sleep. Any advice would be appreciated. I only have 5weeks before trave. I have put on 5lb and can't get into holiday clothes oh dear

      morning Magrid I am unfortunatly unable to take tablets for the pain, as Ive had severe alergic reaction to everything Ive taken. the last thing I tried was a pain patch I was so ill my husband had to call a dr out. I just use hot water bottles and whaeat bags. I would go back to your g.p if you have any side affects with tablets or their not working your gp needs to know. I would see your gp as soon as your able to.sleeping is a big problem with fibro some people have sleeping tablets. you will find pain wise its trial error as some tablets work others dont. sorry Im n ot much help. but a part from hot water bottles wheat bags thats all  I use.I would get into see your gp this week if you can just explain everything to them. hope you have alovely holiday. take care gentle hugs

      Hi Magrid

      I were on Pregsbalin for 8 months with dreadful side effects, including feeling as though I were drunk (I wish) I also put on nearly a stone with them. Asked doc to take me off them, he said no your body will get used to them..So I thought, its my body, and i will wean myself off. I took me about three months, I felt better off them and lost the weight. I had nothing only Paracetamol for a while, then decided to go back and see another doc. He understood, and put me on Oramorph. Been on that now for 3 years. Its ok, takes the edge off I can cope with it except when I have funny turns like I did on Saturday. I am ok now, off to th doc's in a while. have a good day if you can. And enjoy your holidays.biggrin
