I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia last year after having it since DD1 was born. My DH works very long hours so mon- fri I am almost like a single parent to our 2 DDs plus working 25hrs a week and tbh it is exhausting. I try and stick to routine as much as possible (DD1 aged 7.9yrs needs to have routine or behaviour goes out the window & DD2 only turned 1 end of dec).
I need helpful tips on how to stay energised and not completely exhausted and in massive amounts of pain.
Also if I were to give up work could I claim any disability benefits? Never claimed anything before so don't know what's what?
TIA
