I am with you both on this. I’ve been married for nearly 33 years and I’m thankful that my husband understands that I’m very sensitive to touch plus I had to have a total hysterectomy done last September because some how my fibromyalgia effected my uterus and made it 3 times it’s size and caused a lot of issues. We have an amazing sex life but with fibromyalgia it’s hard at times but I go with it anyway even on my worst days yes you feel like you can’t do it because of the pain but sometimes you have to fight that pain. Sometimes having sex relaxes me and sometimes it helps relax the nerves and helps calm them. My new moto is I’m not going to let this disease take over my life I will be fine and I will work through it. So font give up and if you want to have sex go ahead it may help and just tell your partner to be gentle and enjoy it. 😙😙😙😙

Don't forget a low labido (not sure how to spell it) can also b side effects of the meds u r taking especially if u r on anti-depressants. It's also a side effect of depression. I know some people find it really hurts to b touched with this fibro pain. Can u not show him how much u care in a different way. Also explain to him how fibro/meds can make your sex drive completely disappear. Hopefully things will sort them selves out as u get used to the medications & the side effects slowly disappear. Wishing u luck with this & hope things slowly improve for u. Take care prayers, luvs & hugs Roo xx

That’s not so good. It sounds like you’d like more intimacy but you’re afraid of pain. Have you spoken to a doctor? Are you on medication? That can play a big part in reducing libido. You need to keep talking to your boyfriend too. He sounds supportive but he needs to hear what’s what too, to save him thinking it’s personal. x

It happens it is painful just to be touched the only advice I can give you is when you are feeling a bit better show him how much you care pray he knows it's not him it's this darn fibro.

Even holding hands is better than nothing. Everyone needs human touch. Find other ways to make out ( wink wink)
