A (fibro) fighter, not a quitter!

I woke up at 6am this morning after five hours sleep. Fibro pain, toothache/gum ache and a wall of fatigue I’ve struggled to push through. 

I’m paying today for what I did yesterday - which wasn’t very much for a healthy 40 year old but for me, it’s as if I haven’t slept for three days. I feel very depressed today.

After forcing myself to stay awake to watch Prime Minister’s Questions, I slept for the rest of the afternoon, waking up at 5pm. Awoke to see that Suella Braverman had resigned. I predict they’ll be a spate of resignations and sackings!

Feel as though I haven’t slept in a week despite the afternoon rest.

I nearly choked on my lunch (today’s Blip - shop bought pesto pasta salad) when Liz Truss claimed that her government were “compassionate Conservatives”! I swore more than is “lady like” throughout PMQ’s :p

One thing I do agree with her on - I’m a fighter not a quitter. I’m hoping tomorrow will be better.

I’m very grateful that I have made some supportive friends with fibromyalgia who understand how I feel and others who have family members or friends with this condition.

If I don’t feel better tomorrow, I might ring my GP surgery. I always resist that because I feel like there’s not much hope to be found there even though the GP I have now is excellent.

I’ve decided today that I won’t reply to comments going forward but please know that I appreciate all of your comments, follows, hearts and stars :) 

Hope you’ve all had a wonderful Wednesday xx
