    Muscle Twitching

    I was going to say the same thing. It's fine for him to have a "wait and see" attitude :cautious:

    Muscle Twitching

    I've had Fibro for about 31 years, since I was a little boy and thinking back it can last for a good chunk of time, where I will have at least one muscle twitching somewhere for months at a time. I had it throughout my education, just every now and then I'd notice my upper arm or a chest...

    Muscle Twitching

    Hi Deano, I'm new to the forum and can't add much to the advice already give but just wanted to let you know you're not crazy. I too get twitches and muscle spasms on an off, from a single area of my skin twitching rapidly to the whole muscle group and everything in-between. I've found it is...

    Apologies for the duplicated messages. I was trying to be clever an draw a cute ASCII tortoise with my phone but the spacing was weird. I hit Edit to use an Emoji but it seems to have posted separate messages :confused: I'm happy to respond on any messages but please use the one that look most...

    Thanks JamieMarc, it really helps to hear that. And hugs are always welcome :) I think as a result of living with FMS I am hypersensitive to not pulling my weight or letting the side down which my co-workers leant on heavily for their own gain at the expense of the team. It basically broke me...

    Would a mod be able remove my other two messages at all? I was trying to be clever an draw a cute ASCII tortoise with my phone but the spacing was weird. I hit Edit to use an Emoji but it seems to have posted separate messages :confused: I did ping a message over just after I messed up, I'm...

    That's terrible JacktheVoid, especially when you're so young :eek: I guess my family's support comes from my Dad also suffering from FMS. I really hope you have some nice people in your life. I've had a lot of "friends" come and go over the years, it's not too hard to "lose touch" with toxic...

    Hey JacktheVoid Thanks for posting. It’s been 20 years since I started Uni but I still remember it vividly! As you correctly say, I often thought about what I could achieve if my body hadn’t sabotaged me but I was always quick to squash those thoughts when they popped up. It was a waste of...

    🐢As the title indicates, I am not new to FMS. However, I have never spoken about my experiences (to anyone who truly understands). When I was a little boy my Dad lost his job. Over many years he struggled to get back in to steady work, then one day his knee started aching. It developed in to...
