Yes 100% disabled only 1 year now. I will be 58 in March.
I struggle with morning stiffness so bad that before fibro I could only describe waking up in the morning as being so tired it hurts, but it literally does hurt! Morning stiffness plus sleeping problems makes waking up and getting out of bed the hardest part of the day.
If u rest u go stiff so moving a about gets the stiffness away , Try heat, God bless u lass

Plantar fasciitis is pain on the bottom of your foot, around your heel and arch.
The pain is much worse when you start walking after sleeping or resting.
The pain feels better during exercise, but returns after resting
it's difficult to raise your toes off the floor.

I'm thinking of looking into buying a cane for a while now
Walking in the beginning can be alright but sometimes even a little in,

@A MyFibroTeam Member maybe get a golf glove. I think they help with grip.
Has anyone tried this? Was given it on Wednesday to start for pain as its the new fibro medication apparently although my pain isn't fibro related at the moment but as nothing else is working and additive this is the best way forward.

Strange ask but does anyone havd to really think or focus when walking on straight or walking down stairs. Some days I have to really focus or I feel my legs will not work or I will fall down the stairs. Its like I have to tell my brain right leg ,then left leg & walk. Its worse when i am tired or in a flare.
I am very careful when walking as legs just colapse by themselves so scared of going down. I check my floors just to make sure I havn't left anything to trip over. Safety for me. Evelyn

Hope you find some relief 😌
