I'm healthy and active enough to normally forget that I have fibromyalgia.

But when I have a flare up it takes me out completely. I've been in bed all day except for making a cup of tea. I hate it. I have goals, I have things I want to do, I have to be active with my son... But all I can do is lay here and feel the pain. My dog does love the all day cuddles though.

Fibromyalgia can be debilitating at times. My mom has it and she is in horrible pain at times.

@Bang5luts I'm so sorry. It is a pain unlike any other. I've experienced all kinds of pain, I enjoy tattoos, but the fibromyalgia pain consumes every fiber of your being in a way that nothing.

@MarbleMarvel I try to understand and comprehend my moms passion. The only thing I can do is love her, support her in anyway I can and help her do things she can't when she is hurting.
