Today (August 7th 2016) marks 1 years since I got my Fibro and hypermobility diagnosis. 1 year has flown by. It has been full of appointments, twitter chats, starting my blog, learning to drive (again), losing friends who don’t understand chronic illness and gaining friends who do understand how i feel which is the best […]
Well sorry guys, last month I was totally rubbish at this! I even have a blog post draft entitled July goals with nothing more than “My goals for this month are…” so you know the thought was there. Looking back over july I think the reason I was pretty rubbish at getting motivated was because […]
Note: This is how fibro has an impact on my life. If you still enjoy these things then I’m kind of envious. However I am not one of those people who will turn round and say you can’t possibly have Fibro, you don’t have the same symptoms as me. The list of symptoms of fibro […]
Thursday 23rd June, my friend and I headed off for a day at the seaside. It had been a few months since I had seen her, and it had been planned for a while so I had been really looking forward to it! Before we set off in the morning I made sure I […]
I get asked both in real life and online how can I have fibromyalgia and still go to the gym. Well firstly I am not going to the gym and doing 100kg bench presses, forcing my body to do things it can’t manage. The workout programme has been put together by someone who understands the […]

If you had told me 12 months ago I would not only have a fibromyalgia diagnosis but I would also be writing a blog about it, I would have laughed at you. No-one would ever believe me; no-one would ever believe my pain. So as I left for the hospital on August 7th 2015 I […]
*Ok so I know I am posting this in the day but I actually typed this up on my phone last night when I was in bed in terrible pain. Laying here like this, getting uncomfortable, get frustrated it just makes me think what is the point. It is so frustrating that no-body ever sees […]
Wow, another month has flown by. How are we in the 5th month of the year? This year is flying by but with the start of a new month it means a new goals post. I love setting myself mini goals for each and every month I feel accountable to you guys and literally just […]
Fibro sucks, and when I was tying my shoelaces it hurt… and that is when I thought of a number of different things about this condition that just annoy me so much. Bending over to tie my shoelaces hurts a lot A stranger tapping you on the arm can feel as if you’ve been stabbed […]
