    Feels like shards of glass

    It's really painful just to get a hug or even try and get a massage (which I sooo need but I can't stand the pain).

    Severe finger pain - any tips? (Pun intended)

    Hello there. I totally know what you're talking about re: the compression socks. They sure do help with everything you said. It's very hard to try and describe the "feelings/ pain" (that we suffer from) to others. I can barely touch my skin because it feels like I'm "cutting" myself with a...

    Severe finger pain - any tips? (Pun intended)

    Did anyone mention GOUT? It's a type of arthritis. My husband suffers from it. His is generalized in his big toes but has had a flare up in his hands before. Look at your bloodwork and see if they tested you for your URIC ACID levels. High = Gout. You'll have to check what your levels should be...

    Feels like shards of glass

    I have also felt like that. I just wish that I knew what to expect everyday I wake up. Sometimes it's only one particular kind of pain in a "generalized" area, other days it's like "all hell broke loose" in my body.

I'm perty sure he hates seeing me in pain (and everything thing else that goes along with it) and my lack of ability sometimes to not be able do what I love to do and what WE always did together. He wishes he could fix" the...

    Supportive or non-supportive partners

    It's totally understandable why he acts the way he does (to some degree) because he's not "in my shoes" but it would make my day if he could just take 10 seconds out of his day to even ask how I feel or how my day was. It's like he just doesn't want to hear about it, learn or even care about it...

    Supportive or non-supportive partners

    Hi there again. I forgot to mention that I have a bunch of other illnesses on top of this and my husband doesn't communicate about those either. He never tries to cheer me up or give me a "pep" talk. I'm alone on this journey I guess.

    Supportive or non-supportive partners

    Thanks to y'all for speaking about this. I thought I was all alone on this matter. I've not yet been "papered" with fibro but I am on an anti-depressant that helps (somewhat) with my anxiety, depression and fibro. I'm allergic to Cymbalta (bummer because I've heard good things about it). My...
