Hi everyone, I'm lily_242,
I suffer with chronic fatigue, muscle and joint pain that is currently under investigation. Been feeling lonely as I can't get out really to go for distanced walks with friends as I can't walk very far without exhaustion and pain kicking in (and write off the next few days) Just thought I'd check out the Scope forum to see if I could find some support

These are such challenging times, and it sounds like you are dealing with a lot on top of lockdown so a big squeezy hug from me. It's not easy at all. I hope your investigations help provide some answers and your symptoms settle soon (that sounds like a tongue twister!).
A lot of us have felt lonely and are keeping ourselves busy by chatting in the Virtual coffee lounge playing games or talking about random subjects. While you might also want to read others stories about life with chronic fatigue in our Invisible impairments category.

I know we cant meet up with friends at the moment but have you considered getting a mobility scooter for the future
I know it's not everyone's cup of tea and the route will have to be accessible but it could help you get out
