Tips and stories about my journey with Fibromyalgia
I apologise, I’ve been promising this post for months, and really it’s pretty easy to write, I just didn’t get round to it. If you have a weird funky illness that gives you pain and sleep problems, the I really recommend CBD oil. There is no ‘hit’. Just pain relief and a good 6hrs sleep, […]
This is how my body works ….. “Right then, we have a target, all hands on deck we have a target” “We estimate that this project will take <xyz> amount of energy over <abc> number of days: initiate gradual send out of energy per day” “Oh shit, we estimated wrong” “Initiate borrow of energy from […]
This is the face of illness …… It doesn’t look particularly ill does it? Honestly I don’t mind. If I looked like I felt, it would be pretty catastrophic, and at least I don’t have that to worry about. I don’t need lots of sympathy all the time either. Although, I suppose it might […]
Pampering – it’s one of the best presents you can give YOURSELF or your loved ones! It might sound a bit ridiculous for the owner of a Hair & Beauty Salon and Spa to say this: But I hadn’t understand HOW important it is until recently. Now Danny Smith at Radio Verulam is a big […]
I’m so sorry, it’s been sooooo long since I wrote about my Fibromyalgia. I feel especially guilty having been selected as one of the Top 16 Fibromyalgia Blogs worldwide. I totally meant to blog as I went, but it just didn’t happen. But I have GREAT NEWS, so maybe it’s been more important that […]

All cudos to those who can ’empty their minds’ or sit in a corner and ‘ohm’ for 30 minutes a day, but I just can’t do it. I’ve tried ‘guided meditations’ too, but all that jingly jangly music irritates me, and I tend to already be swimming in the sea by the time they […]
Yesterday I asked what I thought was a pretty innocuous question on facebook and twitter ” I’d love all the reasons / excuses why you ended up unhealthy, unfit and overweight?”. I was just looking to finish a list for my book, and expecting a couple of reasons. I must have had 100 answers by […]
I have NEWS – there have been big changes. Initially it was all rather slow, frustrating and two steps forward and one step back. My last post was very up and down. However, it looks like it all accumulates into one big sudden improvement, once you have ticked off a large enough percentage of […]
I thought you might like to know how I’m doing with the whole fibromyalgia thing? Lots of people have asked how I am, but it’s really difficult to say in 1 sentence, and I feel boring if I describe it in full. I’ve learnt loads more about it and have created a static page […]
