Hi Marlie,
I hear you with the pain, me to, I have it 24/7 its frustrating and soul destroying at times.

I love to paint, I put pillows or cushions on the floor and lay down with them to support my spine, pelvis and feet. I use my walking aids to get up off the floor or a solid chair to hold onto.

Or if I am sitting take short breaks every 20/30 mins, or I use an easel and stand and again I will take breaks by sitting oy laying down when the pain and other symptoms get to intense. I'll try another to help ease my symptoms, if it means adding cushions to my sofa to sit on to be more comfortable, getting up and moving for a few minutes, breathing exercsies, heat pads.... anything!

I hope you get some joy enjoying a hobby!
All the best,
Dee
