Fibromyalgia for nearly 20 years - i want my old life back!

I have suffered with Fibromyalgia for nearly 20 years which has progressed to me now no longer being able to work, I have extreme pain and fatigue and feel my life no longer belongs to me. I have to have my meds put in a blister pack by the pharmacist so I don’t get mixed up. Basically I want my old life back!
