hello everyone.
i have suffered with chronic pain since about 10 years of age,doctor kept saying it was growing pains in my legs.
I have osteoarthritis and was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2017.
i am in constant pain everywhere ,constant spasms in my back as well .
This condition has slowly taken over my life where i have now had to stop working because of everything that comes with this awful condition.
The pain medication helps but you have no choice but to try and get on with things as best you can.
