Battling #Fibromyalgia means daily struggles with #Allodynia—even soft touches can be painful!
I wear clothes inside-out to avoid irritation (or even bruises).
This alone could completely change a pain-free life—and is just ONE of our many symptoms with #ChronicPain.

The reality that for MOST people #opioids are safe and effective medicines to treat pain has become an inconvenient truth in the face of ongoing Propaganda fueled lies.

Also doctors: googles my condition right in front of me

Hello Everyone

When you are diagnosed with fibromyalgia one of the first things to go through our head is “IS THIS ILLNESS PROGRESSIVE”.

Many doctors will tell you it’s not, so if that was the case how come most of us seem to go through “SIX DIFFERENT STAGES OF FIBRO”

STAGE 1: You will find you start to experience more pain and fatigue than you have before. You may still be able to work but you know something is not right, so you go to the doctors.

STAGE 2: You are in pain a lot and are taking over the counter pain killers which don’t help, and you realise the pain is not going to go anytime soon. You may still be working and spending time with family and friends but feel a lot of pain and fatigue almost every day.

STAGE 3: You are in constant pain and constantly tired. You question if you will ever function normally again. You are thinking of giving up your job and you start to turn down invites from family and friends as all you want to do is rest all the time. At this stage you start to feel more alone. This stage can last for Years.

STAGE 4: You have pain all the time and good days are few and far between. When you do have a good day, you do as much as you can knowing you will pay tomorrow.

By this stage you have stopped working, friends and family make plans without you, people start to think your using fibromyalgia as an excuse for not doing things as stages 1-3 you could do so much more. You feel alone, isolated, worried, emotional and sad. This Stage can last Years.

STAGE 5: You will have stopped working, may be claiming benefits and have to have someone help you. You’re very sore, cry a lot and feel like a prisoner in your own body. You find it is only other “FIBRO WARRIORS” that understand your predicament and you wish family and friends understood the condition more.

STAGE 6: “THE FINAL STAGE”. Fibromyalgia is now your lifestyle. Most of your friends are people also living with the condition. It is easy to feel overwhelmed in this stage. You tried to do what you can but feel guilty you’re not pulling your weight at home, and you feel you are a burden.

Hope we have opened your eyes to the different stages you will go through.

I am stage 6. Which one are you?
