Those who have read my previous thread contributions will know my fibro has spiralled this last year.
However hard i try walking has become impossible. I can bearable stand long enough to get to bathroom or get a drink.
From the waist down it feels so rigid like all joints muscles tendons ligaments from hips through thighs in and out of knees through calves ankles and feet have turned to stone with pain that makes you want to scream.
Even in bed its unbearable and keeps me awake...only sleeping medication gives me about 2 hours then i am awake fighting tears. This has been non stop except for about 3 days since June 2015.
Is anyone else in this situation...i push myself on some days where it seems momentarily bearable to walk up and down my garden a few times or around my lounge in a circuit to try and get me going but then the next day i am seized up again for weeks and never get back to how my fibro used to be where i could go for walks and go to the shops for short outings ...maybe 40 minutes on my feet or an hour on a good day.
I am so lost and the idea of Christmas in bed when even with it i have cooked lunch wrapped presents....ok so i ended up aching all over but i could do it and still recover back then after a couple of nights rest.
I have become very depressed living like this and feel so powerless and useless and as if no doctor in the world will believe it's this bad...i didn't think it could get this bad!
