Hello my nam e is Elaine and i live in Sherwood Nottingham, i am only 30 and was told i had Fibro about 5 yeaars agao. i resently changed GP and i found  that the one i am with is very unhelpful, he just keeps saying excecise is the best thig to help with pain; but he want try excecising when you are in a lot of pain. He will not give me a cosetions travel pass becouse i can walk more thatn 50 yr nad i work PT.

I would verymuch like to meet with anyone elce that lives in Sherwood  and would like to know if anyone could recomend me GP tat is more understanding of the condition. I am a very psitiv perso and even do yoga and i think tis is what stops me giving up.  I also ahve a very understanding boyfriend too who will help me anything and hates to see me in pain.

I did attend the Nottingham Fibro support goup but found so dull and very negitive and people where asking me  "now are you sure you should be working"? which is not what I want to hear.

i hope i can help other to be more positive about fibro an if you are working then keep doing so even if its less than 16 hours because if you stop doing things altogeather the condititon will take over you and you  could end up not doing anything; beleve me i ahve met peole at the notts grop who have just given up and spend most of ther day asleep and do not go out; i would like to prvent this happing to others and help them stay positive and active.

Hope to hear from anyone soon who share the same vews as me or would like to
athanks fr taking time to read this really long e mail

kind regareds

Elaine
