Help my sister who has fibro ptsd and many other health issues on top try get her living a bit more of a normal life

Nationwide

At 13 she was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and ptsd but then sheand was able to manage it most the time till after her 2nd baby and things turned she had been put on meds due to personal reasons made her put weight on and she got sicker and life has never caught a break since been 10 years since her 2nd baby.

My sister even if in bed and someone needs her thwy come talk to her

She goea put her way to help everyone but her self. Her hubby is thw same.

Now she also gets chronic pain as explained due to the sensory in her body due to a traumatic pain shes experienced after having a full placenta abruption and loosing her boy and nearly dien her self smallest tummy pain or cramp in leg triggers of the worst day of her life back to when she lost her son and the pain she went thru.

As of late i have since been living with her and her wee family. I've seen her to point she cant move or walk and struggle to the point even her childrem can't hug her at times. She cant sleep she on so much meds has a lot of falls.

She has just changed doctors to someone who knows more about fibro wants to try make life easier but has to be seen regulary as she has to be ween of meds she on which is like a walk in pharmacy she has to travel about 45min+ to her doctor and on top ends up in after hours regularly.

My sister may have a melting bone disease on top her spine is narrowing more each time has a xray. She needs to go for a bone indensity test but doctor said its not funded is going to cost around 300 possibly more dovtor has said and has to travel for it.

My sister is in so much pain all the time she trys to act tough and do what she feels she needs to do as a wife and mum. She barely leaves the house she gets numb in feet legs arms hands instantly. She hurts all over gets miagraines and sensitive ro noise and lights often she 33 soon so 20 years of living with this condition and not knowing whats next.

Recently when couldnt walk or move with out support she would be holding back tears as being helped to the toilet she often crys her self to sleep cause hates her health and body.

We need to try all avenues to get her some freedom and life back in her i see 80 year olds living and walking etc. She still young her youngest child is 4 next is 10 and oldest is 13 at home then has two step children 18 and nearly 20.

Her 13 year old is suffering healtj issues to so puts more stress on my sister. Stress makes her worst she cant cope like most do.
