I'm in the uk. I've struggled physically with the effects of fibromyalgia. It affects my work, my social life, it keeps me trapped in my house for months. I'm alone all the time. i sleep for days on end and had to give up my dog to a good home because i wasn't able to take her out every day. i was diagnosed around 5 years ago and speak to my gp regularly. I've been told they can't increase my pain killers and they are sending me to the pain clinic. i also spoke to a psychiatrist last week who recommended getting occupational health in to see what could be changed in my home and also a company that deals with work issues and helps you resolve things. i feel as though if i hadn't been seeing this psychiatrist for another condition i wouldn't have been offered these helpful things. why is it that you always seem to need to know what to ask for on the nhs? no information seems to be volunteered when you speak to the gp. sorry that was a long one šŸ˜
