hi everyone, well after a crazy week I am now a grandma again!! We were at the hospital for 2 days solid but I have a beautiful grandson!

I also had physio last week and that could be hopeful for my ankles, I have been to London to the maudsley hospital with my teenage daughter, they have offered her a treatment program! And to top it off my middle daughter has been on fertility treatment to fall pregnant and we got the news a few days ago it has worked!!! My gosh all such good things going on!! But I feel like crap! I want to crawl up into a ball and hide!! I don't understand why?? I am happy for all of the girls, it's all positive progress that we have waited for so why am I so down? I don't even want to get out of bed or answer the phone!

It may be the fact that you've probley been stress for so long over things that now it's all turned out for the best your body is feeling the pain from the stress and that makes you feel down when your in pain . Try to take it easy and enjoy your grandson best wishes xxx

    Hi Jane218p congratulations on becoming a grandma how wonderful for you. also its excellent news about all the girls. Even though we can have good and positive things going on in our lives. we can still feel crap feeling low depressed are all part of fibro. fibro is hard condition to live with and manage it drains us both physcically and mentally and robs us of so many things. Its easier said than done but try focus on the positives and especially your grandson try focussing your mind not on fibro but other things. christmas isnt far a way. your grandsons 1st christmas. We all get down hun its not surprising with what we have to put up with. just take a day at a time get through it as best you can, and enjoy your grandson. take care gentle hugs xx

    Hi Jane,

    Congratulations on all the great things that are happening for your daughters.

    Despite all of the good things you have had an incredibly emotional and physical week. Fibro has a way of robbing us of the good times simply because of the energy it takes to experience them. You have had a lot of things to stress your reserves and now your body needs time to recover. Be gentle on yourself and try not to beat yourself up. It's tough right now but it will get better.

    Look after yourself and gentle hugs xx
