Time has now come
and now after 7 years of trying all kinds of medications............it's time for insulin. I have just come home from seeing my endocrinologist and as nothing else is working, it's time to try it.

I'm enjoying my time off and have started working on the FMS but am nowhere near where I'd hoped to be by now, i think i was looking through rose coloured glasses expecting to be near cured lol.
It has however pointed out to me just how drained i was before I gave up work and I do not for the life me know how i managed that on a daily, and weekly basis for so long.
I recently travelled into the city for a 3 day course and by day 2 i was back on painkillers and not coping. This after I'd had a 2 1/2 week rest from travel and working. I owe a hell of a lot of the past 6 months or more to a mental mindset that made sure I made it and collapsed on weekends. :)
Now, I just try and pace myself because I know if i push myself then i pay for it for days to come.
Last week I went to a munch in Rosebud and then went to Williamstown after that and then drove home again. I paid for it for the following 2 days. Not a good way to be.
My specialist actually said that by getting onto insulin can help the pain receptors and therefore could possibly decrease that side of the FMS.
Here's hoping......it's a whole new lifestyle!
