Fibromyalgia, you're cruel and unforgiving.
Just like the darkness, pitch. Foreboding.
Today you take almost my all.
Almost.

🦋Not everybody has the same symptoms. And every individual is just that...INDIVIDUAL.

Be kind. Be patient. Be supportive.

Gentle hugs fellow warriors.

Let's talk about coexistence with pain.

More often than not my face doesn't reflect what my mind and body are going through. Is this you?

Those of us who live with chronic pain, or long-term conditions of any kind, are likely to be tolerating more than you can imagine.

🟣I know somebody else who has [insert long-term condition here] and they can manage.

🙄

In fact...

🦋Yes you can be in that much pain.

🦋It is that bad. Just try living with it for an hour.

🦋It isn't that simple.

I'm being brave posting these pictures so if you only have negative comments please scroll on by before you post them.

I'll be picking this up with my GP when I next see them but I just wanted to share one of the more frustrating sides (for me anyway) of having to live with a long-term condition.

Total weight gain = 5st 10lb

Hello,

The recent hiatus on social media has been evident, or not given you won't have seen anything, and I just wanted to provide a little update. In addition, I want to let you know how Chronically Be will be managed and utilised going forward.

So, where have I been?
1/4

[ChronicallyBe @Chronically_Be]

So...

Going forward I'll be posting content on a more regular basis. As well as talking all things fibro, I shall be covering such things as menopause, femoral neuralgia, weight gain from medication, hemiplegic migraine, osteoarthritis, PTSD, mental health and much more.

Thanks, gentle hugs from a suitable distance and non contact. 🦋💜

@6percentNorse It's frustrating. It's scary. I'm a worrier.

[ChronicallyBe @Chronically_Be]

I've got a doctor's appointment (ENT) next Monday due to some frustrating symptoms. I've been a bit all over the place hence the lack of content. I've suffered with objective pulsatile tinnitus for over 20 years but a recent shift in this, and other head related symptoms ...
