MEN WITH FM    
 
Now  although I said that this site was geared towards the female prospective,  I appreciate that men too can  have  FM and  I want to hear your ways  of dealing with this. 
 
How do you  juggle  your life to work around having Fibromyalgia ?
 
As a  man, you will probably  have been the  main  bread winner, and this would  be an additional  burden  on you  if you are not able to  work in the same way anymore, or  have to give  up work completely.
 
Men are meant to be the  strong type, without the emotional side of females,  but when  you are struggling with an illness such as  FM,  it  must  be  hard to 'be strong'
 
Do you as a  man  feel that you cannot  let your family and  friends  know how you feel.  Do  you try and  hide your emotions.  Do  you suffer from depression etc ?
 
We are  here to support everyone with FM,  men,  women,  children, and the relatives, helpers etc., who are all effected  by this  'condition' 
 
So open up, and  let us  in, don't try and  struggle on, on  your  own.
 
If  you can't get along to a  support group,   use  this site for support.   Send  me an email for us to publish  to say  how you  cope,  and what 'help' you feel you  need.  Lets have you 'meeting up'  with others via this site who are  in a  similar  situation.Lets  get the  male  prospective on dealing with FM.   E mail admin@fibrofox.co.uk
 
If you  need to have a  chat  on a one to one  basis, send  me an email with your  contact details (and  best time to call)  and  I'll  get  back  to you a.s.ap. 
 
I can  generally  only  call  back  after 5pm  week days  or weekends, but  if you  need a  call at  another time,  I will arrange for someone else to call you from our support
team.
 
If you would  prefer to converse by  email, thats fine.
 
If you are a  man  and  would  like to join the support team, please  let  me  know.
