We are not the people we use to be, we would not wish fibromyalgia on any body.

    So true!!! I use to be active, social and energetic, now I am a slothful stay at home. I have to force myself sometimes to go out and often it is not possible. I get so tired at night, even though when I go to bed I don't necessarily sleep. Enough!!!

    Have a good week Kaz.

    Very true. I used to be a very active busy person, now since my friend Fibro has lived with me I can no longer do hardly anything. I want to go out in the car, but I am afraid to. I just stay indoors all week, I am so bored.

      Bless you Ann I cant drive I have to rely on my husband for taking me out. Im stuck in all week I too get really fed up and bored. I dont see or hear from any one so Im always glad when my husband gets in from work. I have my dog charlie hes good company but I cant have a conversation with him. I try to go out on a sat or sunday my husband takes me for a drive out but I cant be in the car too long as Im in pain with my back and my legs go that stiff that I struggle to get out the car. My husband has to wheel round shops in a wheelchair as I can no longer walk around shops. to be honest I shop mainly on line. why are ou worried about going out in your car hun you can always talk to me on here and private message me. we are both in the same boat here for you take care gentle hugs
