Hello 🙋 friends
Today May 12, 2020 is Fibromyalgia Awareness Day 💜
Yesterday (Monday) I filmed this Day In The Life with me - just my usual kind of day...

I enjoyed this video and seeing the struggles that you go through everyday. I too have some of the same pain, and severe Arthritis so I know it’s hard to just move at all. You really do inspire me to not feel so bad about what I can’t do.hugs and hope you feel better tomorrow.

[@carolinerebornknight]

Not don't feel bad - none of us want to be like this at all!

[@Littlebloomsbaby]

I absolutely get you, the last 2 days I have been in extreme pain and my brain as not been with it so much so I went to cashpoint to take money out and walked off without taking money lol I have a planner and try to spread my chores through the week, like you things are taking a lot longer to do and need to lie on the bed after I try my best to go for a walk as often as I can the pram is a god send and helps me a lot, how dabber does Timothy look in his shirt and tie all your babies are always dressed so beautiful sending loads of love and hugs xxxx

Hugs ❣️❣️

Heidi is just sweet in her little dress and I can tell you are having a down day. I know Purple is for Lupus, but I didn't know that it was for Fibromyalgia too. It is one of the themes this Thursday. The babies are all so cute. I hope you get all your work done Caroline.❤️🇨🇦

Thank you for being here 💜

Hi Caroline, Happy Fibromyalgia day to you. I was wondering how you got into my Medicine Cabinet. Except for the fact that I'm a bit futher along. I've had a few surgeries . I also suffer from copd. My pain is an every day occurrence. You do get accustomed to living with most of it. It might sound silly but it is nice to know that you're not the only one. You are very lucky to have a man who loves and understands what you're going through. My Exhusband wasn't about to stay around. So I am alone. I understand what you mean by going back to bed. Oh by the way we have been released from lockdown with some restrictions. So I got to pick up some things l haven't had for nine weeks. So Stay Safe and Keep Smiling. The kids looked adorable as always.

[@carolinerebornknight]

Ugh COPD 😔😔😔 please take care with the virus around my friend 💛💜💛💜

[@DeirdresRebornsandlupuslife]

Aww Heidi looks wonderful for sure.its sounds like your having a Down day for sure,there's a wee thing you can get to attach to your kettle.wow,I would give anything for a hot tub,I don't even have a bath anymore.your so right ,you have to just accept your bad days and rest.hello Timothy,wow love his outfit.and little Oliver is such a sweetie. I go to bed between 7 and 8 lol.wow ,we take a lot of the same night tablets,my sleeper is 7.5 and I still can't sleep,I can't take tramadol either,it makes me bite my tougne in my sleep,you can't take it with certain antidepressants. I was offered amnatrption too,that started off as an antidepressant too. Well I think you are super awesome Caroline,lots of love ,xxx

[@carolinerebornknight]

Awww thank you 💗 we are all warriors 💗 take care my friend

[@ruthparkinson9144]

I have fibromyalgia too. I have pain flare-ups. I am on propanol twice a day for migraines. Also sertraline 200mg, and omeprazole. I type two diabetic but that is under control. I am glad that I am not the only one. I think I would benefit from a painkiller. Also, I get ba fatigue and memory loss. Lots of love.

[@carolinerebornknight]

Yes I'm sure you would feel better with a painkiller too! I'm surprised you are not on one like Gabapentin unless it doesn't mix well with your other meds. Go back to the doctor if you can 💗

[@DeirdresRebornsandlupuslife]

Hi Caroline,I could never take gabiapentin although I'm supposed to,they made me pit so much wait on and caused memory loss very bad and saying my words wrong and I found they made my tiredness much worst.be careful changing antidepressants because the last time I did it I was vomiting for seven months before they got it sorted,the doctor made a mistake and put me on a different family of antidepressants which you can't do especially when you've been on the same type for 30 years .you are amazing how cheerful you seem to be all the time,I wish I could be like that.i am trying,I went out for my walk today but not very far,lol I can never sleep when I do try to lye down.i understand completely.aww annie,hello sweetie,don't you look beautiful.my daughter was saying I should get one of those,are they difficult to work?your so right Caroline,try not to overdo it,wow what a clever girl you are.beautiful floor. I couldn't use the Henry,I got a dyson and it's great.my husband washes the floors.i can't get anything done ATM and your right,it really does depress you,but your home looks beautiful Caroline.your so organised,well done xxx

[@lindad1195]

I’m having a lot of fatigue right now as well. Not feeling good, just blah. Don’t know if it’s my fibro or just being in self isolation so long. My fibro manifests in pain and memory loss, and fatigue. Do you have problems with balance? I really do sometimes. I will turn to do something and just fall into the wall! I have a walker but hate to use it! I don’t think the drs in the US recognize these symptoms like your drs do. The vacuume I use is the Dyson V7 and I love it! It’s cordless so I don’t trip on it all the time and it’s light weight and it works like a dream with great suction!

[@carolinerebornknight]

Hi Linda - yes I do have a problem with balance too - I can't remember what it is called - erm...not vertigo but it's the same kind of thing
