Getting a Diagnosis of Fibromyalgia and ME (CFS)

[@Marcia_Toms]

Hi CJ - I am absolutely convinced mine was caused by childhood trauma, plus some terrible experiences as an adult too, which I never returned to how I was each time. Thank you for the video xx

[@fibrowarriors]

Hi honey This is another subject I'm desperate to talk about but I can't. I don't want to cause friction in an already fractured family set up. I would take a guess that the majority of us are in the same position. I've had a couple of people disagree with me which is obviously fine. We are all entitled to an opinion but I know for sure what caused mine and its not something that's easy to talk about. Much love sweetheart ❤️ xx

[@fibrowarriors]

OMG! I have the chills. I was literally just thinking about you and worried I hadn't heard from you. This stuff happens to me all the time. Sending much love & good vibes back to you. Your friend in the UK xx

@@fibrowarriors oh, thank you for thinking of me and I am thinking about my friends too. I miss them sometimes when I don’t see them on my newsfeed. 💐 you are special and you are loved and I would take any kind of video you were willing to send knowing you doing OK I’m sending the biggest hugs 💕

[@fibrowarriors]

@@StopListenThink You're one of my OG's as the cool kids say lol. Of course I miss my friends. You're all so special to me you have no idea. I honestly was thinking I haven't heard from my "friend in America" and up you popped. Please don't worry I know everyone can't always respond to every video. Your kind words felt like a huge hug. Thank you. I'm so blessed to have friends like you. Much love 🤗

Childhood trauma…agree

Hi 👋 were you raised by a narcissist by any chance? Please don't think you have to reply if it's too personal a question. Much love CJ ❤️ xx

Hi CJ how are you doing? Just to let you know Mike has got a date for his brain scan, it’s next Friday 24th. That will be 21 days after his appointment with Cons. Love and hugs 😘🙋‍♀️❤️

I believe there are many people who were abused as children and just don't remember it.

[@fibrowarriors]

Yes I agree. I know I've blocked out most of the first 7 years of my life. I'm way too scared to go there 😫

[@StopListenThink]

I have been keeping a high blood pressure log, because none of the medicine seem to be working

[@StopListenThink]

For my doctor 👩‍⚕️

[@fibrowarriors]

@@StopListenThink Good thinking. Doctors really like seeing stuff written down xx

[@Marcia_Toms]

CJ is there any way of talking about how horrible pain management clinics can be and the affect it has on us both psychologically and physically? I was talked to dreadfully yesterday and was so upset then today my pain is a 8 or 9 she upset me so much. I wondered if this is something others also experience and how they deal with such professionals? X

[@fibrowarriors]

I'm so sorry my friend. I doubt it's any consolation, but I've had awful experiences myself. I've stayed away from talking about it. Maybe I should? I don't want to put people off going but .... let me think about how I can broach this carefully. I promise I'll cover it. You're very welcome to message me. Try not to take it too personally. Hard I know. Sending you a huge soft gentle hug xx 😘 💕

[@Marcia_Toms]

@@fibrowarriors thank you CJ. I wouldn’t want to put people off either. It does seem very one sided and nasty each appointment I have. Much nicer family here 🤗 x

[@Marcia_Toms]

@@fibrowarriors thank you CJ you’re so kind xx

[@Marcia_Toms]

@@fibrowarriors I understand CJ - big hugs my friend xx 🤗

[@fibrowarriors]

@polarskye Aw that's so lovely. We are so blessed on my wonderful community. I've been to many Pain Management appts and not had one single positive one. One really nasty doctor told me Fibromyalgia doesn't really exist and it's not possible for me to be in the amount of pain "I claim to be in" !! I was furious. I stormed out and never went back. If they're not helping you don't go back or request to be seen by another doctor xx
