    It has been so sad reading these posts where relationships have suffered so much due to lack of understanding. I guess I must be one of the lucky ones as my hubby has been amazing and has looked after and supported me through my FS and since my op for AC dislocation. As far as the FS went, during the freezing stage when pain was at its most incapacitating, it upset me as much to see the desperation on his face when he was so helpless to stop the pain. All my family and friends have been so supportive and Iit brings as lump to my throat to think this is unusual rather than the norm. You are all in my thoughts and I wish you all recovery sooner rather than later.

    Yes Yes Yes just had another argument, having M.E. as well makes things impossible my husband has a job understanding one thing let alone two. I cannot stand it any longer. He is telling me how I should communicate with people what cheek. He says I should speek to frineds on the phone not to e-mail or text just because he can't do. Funny thing he doesn't make conversastion. Sorry I am so angry in pain and utterly exhausted.

      it seems im not he only one who has had difficulties with relationships, a few on here have had the same which is really a shame considering how painful F/S can be .

      after this morings episode I just feel like leaving, but I am so trapped with this frozen shoulder, M.E. and 48 years of marriage. You would think just this once through these illnesses both at the same time it would not have to me who pretends. It is about time he had a go at it.!!

      oh dear , sounds like youve had enough sad when i was with my ex partner we argued on a daily basis about one thing or another , but mostly it was due to my shoulder causing so much pain that we argued and ultimately split , hope that doesnt happen to you after such a long time together.

      We have argued a lot since our youngest was born 32 years ago and unless I pretend thing are no good. His turn now. Watch this space. I have had enough,just don't know what to do about it. With having this FC it has stopped me doing all the things I enjoy. Doing them just took the edge off how unhappy I have been in the marriage. A long time. We did go to councelling once, but as he did not agree with that it did not work. The problem with him is that there is three people (or things) in this marriage, him (the farmer), THE FARM and me.
