I’m Tired of This

I have had this fibro for almost 8 years now and I’m so tired of hurting all the time! There are some days I don’t even feel like getting out of bed. The hardest part is letting my wife down all the time. She tells me I shouldn’t worry about it but I do.

My life right now feels like I’m in hell and can’t get out. I have been on all kinds of meds for this but nothing seems to help. I am a fisherman but this fibro has stopped me from fishing as much as I used to.

Anytime I try to do things I pay for it the next day or 2 and I’m so tired all the time too. I have been trying to deal with this but it’s not easy. I am on a Fentynol patch now and my doctor wants to up the dosage again. I have even tried physical therapy and that didn’t work either. So now I’m at wits end with fibromyalgia and I’m really hoping someone out there can possibly help me.

    I was in an accident in June 2008, I hurt my neck and back. The spine doctor I have been seeing is horrible, because my x-rays are normal he gives me the impression he thinks I’m lying about my pain. [more..]
