pressure
Posted , 8 users are following.
Hi i am in early stages of being diagnosed and just had blood tests taken after dr mentioned fibro. I can never feel refreshed and constantly feel tired, have cold symptoms, headaches, achy joints, constantly feel cold and have cold hands.
Just wanted to ask does anyone suffer with pressure when they lie on either side of their hips at night. I find i have to keep changing position as pressure feels really bad. Why do i feel so old at 45 lol

Ahh...poor you. I feel for you. Yes, I too have pains throughtout the night and I am contantly tossing and turning but can never find a comfortable position. I too am 45 and was only diagnosed with fibro Aug 2014. I have been sufrfering since I was 23.
Unfortunately, staying calm and stress free is the way forward. Need to take a day at a time.
Gentle Hugs. x

I have noticed since i changed my job 8 months ago i have felt worse and was just thinking maybe i was getting too old for my kind of work, so went to drs and told him i felt rotten all the time and never felt refreshed.
He mentioned fibro referred me for bloods and put me on naproxen and i go back in 2 weeks.
He has put me on the sick for 2 weeks as my job is physical and i cant manage it. Worried if my bloods come back normal he will say there is nothing wrong. Just a waiting game as im not sure if i have fibro or not

Yes i suppose i just didnt expect him to say it sounds like fibro as i always thought i would be in loads more pain but hey we are all different.
I am constantly tired even if i do manage to sleep well. Also about to start my period, which never used to give me pain but last night had to have a hot water bottle as pain was worse than i had ever had...

Stress makes matters worse, positive thinking helps although really difficult to do making the effort to do a little exercise every day will make a difference to how you feel.I watch diet too and have cut out refined sugars and gluten. Again all individual and what works for me. It may help you to keep a diary to see if there is any pattern.

My boyfriend and I bought a new bed around 6 months ago when we thought the old one may be causing my back pain and for a while the new bed did seem to help but since my symptoms have got worse the new mattress is feeing harder and harder.
I think I will try a memory foam mattress topper and see if this helps at all.
Maybe you could try this or a heated blanket? I find a hot water bottle or hot shower helpful after finding the suggestions online.
Hope you (and all of us) are getting better sleep soon.
