Hi everyone, I am Claudia and I live with chronic pain since around I was 11 years old. Now I am turning 50, and it is really causing limitations to my life. Thanks for having me.

I have a lot of sympathy for you Claudia. It is hard to live with the chronic pain and then to have family who think you should push through it like an athlete is so hard. My family thinks my fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis is not as bad as I make out and although my knees are getting so bad it's almost time for a knee replacement I should just keep walking and pushing it..
