Hi, my name is tabbymum!

Hi, I suffer from fibromyalgia can be painful most of the time, each hour various of things / chores/ shopping even cooking or looking after the little ones, I wear a mask so that you don’t see how much pain am in. Would love to go back to college as that gave me something else to think about as I had the support that I needed.

Please please let me know if there’s anything that I can help/support you with???
A lot of conversations around fibromyalgia take place in the thread 'Dealing with chronic pain'. You might like to have a look and see what you find.
I wonder if it is the social and getting out and about part of college that is important to you, or whether you've considered online learning?
Looking forward to getting to know you better,
Warmest best wishes,
Richard
