Hi Tired of tired,

I'm newly diagnosed and new to this site too. It's great, isn't it?

Yes, I have problems with dizziness and half the time when I stand up my feet don't quite do what I want them to. I'm constantly going over sidewise & hitting the wall, the coffee table, my desk...

I've always been a klutz but this is getting ridiculous!

Gee did I post this?? Sounds exactly like me.... going over sidewise.

Last night we were watering flowers in the yard and I kept tipping over, I stumbled all over the front yard. Hubby finally asked if I was ok and I told him yeah as long as I don't fall off my feet. About that time our neighbor came home having had way too much to drink. He stumbled up to the porch and about fell going into the door. Tom looked at me as said "Well he's drunk again" & I asked him how he knew. He said by the way he was stumbling around. I asked him how the neighbors that might have seen me stumbling around would know that I wasn't drunk? He didn't have an answer and neither did I. I'm thinking of getting a t-shirt that says "I'm not drunk, I have fibro"

Be wise and dignified like the swan: he maintains his composure, staying unruffled on the surface, while always paddling like crazy underneath.

Fibromyalgia is not an invisible diease, I'm right here!

Or something star trekkie like that.

But if you ever make up T-shirts like that I'd buy one.

May your troubles be less, Your blessings be more. And nothing but happiness come through your door!

I, too, sometimes have trouble with balance and walking straight. I just stop for a minute, take a deep breath and tell myself to slow down.
