Hello Elsie @elsie1972 and a very warm welcome to the community. Glad you have found us. Sorry to hear about the loss of your mum and your increasing pain.
We have many fibromyalgia sufferers among our membership and some of them will no doubt be in touch with you soon (things tend to be a little quiet at the weekends sometimes) and if you would like to do so you could take a look at the 'Dealing with chronic pain' thread.
Please keep in touch, and do get back to us if you have any questions or need any assistance.
Warmest best wishes,
