@Jane Ah Jane, so you are one of these people who if we shake will rattle LOL. For the most part yes I do sleep okay, But when the wakies take hold they grab on tight lol. Is one of the reasons you have difficulty sleeping because of the pain from fibro? -

@Ami2301 same old same old lol but I am NOT complaining, in my life no news is good news! ???
@jane1973 I can’t imagine how difficult things must be for you. I had a friend once who had FM and everything they owned was made out of memory foam! At times it feels like it’s almost impossible to stay on top of doesn’t it?
Me? Well I am 24/7 at war with my body, probably like many others on here. It’s a daily battle with the MS (which in my dictionary stands for My Sh*t LOL). But quite simply it ain’t gonna win lol - as they say what doesn’t kill you, you can kick up the a$$ and send back to hell where it belongs ?? LOL.
To answer your question, daily struggles can sometimes mean just doing the basic things if it’s a bad day. I live on my own and get by on my own. So far I have yet to train my crazy cat in the art of cooking LOL. I get really **** off when well meaning people say “what? No carers ?” They don’t realise how patronising they sound ???
