Love you guys! If it wasn't for this board, Heather and you lot, I'd have NEVER been diagnosed. I was going to doctors for a DECADE with symptoms that add up to classic Fibro and not a single doctor mentioned it.

Ruchie, honey, I diagnosed myself 6 months ago and only just recently got round to getting a doctor to confirm this! I'd been banging my head against brick doctors for so long I didn't give a damn about diagnosing myself - I know my body way better than anyone else could. You sound like a classic case.

The others have given a pretty good description of morning stiffness. I find I only tend to get it bad when I have to drag myself out of bed early for work or something. If I lie in bed all nice and warm, I tend to not be so stiff.

You guys MUST have paracetamol over there. I'll find out some brand names. My FIL works in Pharmaceuticals, so he should know. Paracetamol isn't a brand-name, it's a drug, like aspirin, but unlike asprin it doesn't thin your blood. It's supposed to be safer and it doesn't affect your stomach like ibuprofen (Aleve?).

Get some drugs Ruchie!
