Yesterday i had a letter one i have been waiting for since june. I finally got DLA! (Disability Living Allowance) and they are backdating the payments to June. I have got the Higher rate of mobility which is about £47 a week and Lower rate care which about £18 a week. I dont know how often the payments are or when i will be getting the backdated money i will be calling them monday to sort everything out. But it is a big victory! I have been looking at a website http://www.enabledpeople.co.uk/ which has alot of information on what people on higher rate mobility are entitled to ( Eg mobility cars, carers passes at the cinema, bus passes, blue badges for car, train passes etc) so i will be making alot of phone calls monday!
The headaches have been getting bad but i have been trying to deal with them as much as possible, i have had to take a boosted dosage of 175mg of amitriptalyne every couple of days. I am about to go to 75mg and 100mg every other day slowly getting there! just wish the pain wasnt increasing!

A blog about the journey I have gone through since developing Fibromyalgia in July 2007 and all the experiences, symptoms and suffering I have endured. My hope is that this blog may help someone else with Fibromyalgia realise that they are not alone.
