Am 57, have osteoarthritis in multiple joints, and was diagnosed with fibromyalgia a few years ago. To be truthful I have found it very hard to come to terms. Cannot believe how much it has affected my life. Can no longer work, legs are continuously heavy and painful, thought it was from my spine injury 30 years ago, but was told yesterday that my leg, feet, buttock and groin pain is not due to my spine that the nerves to my bowels/bladder are fine, that I only have slight impingement. The problem is that the pains in joints are very similar to osteoarthritis, so am very confused, don't know if its fibro or arthritis, have lost 2 stone in past year and muscle loss, constant head pain and tenderness, patches of my body hurt to touch, neck, shoulder, jaw, ears hurt. Also get chest pain when things get a little stressful. Am tired constantly. It feels like i'm not contributing enough to my family. My husband and girls are amazing. Our dogs make sure I walk daily, so I thank them for that. Thank you for your time Janet
