I just need to admit "yes I am having a bad day"

I'm so conscious that my love one's are really concerned about the amount of pain meds I've been taking for a prolonged time so I tend to down play how bad it is most of the time.

So by sharing here I am unburdening

Today I had physiotherapy and now I feel like someone has beaten me with a baseball bat, it's one of those days when you could do with a hug but someone actually touching me would bring me to tears

for letting me share.

I'm sorry to hear you are in so much pain. Don't feel bad about taking your pain meds - your doctor prescribed them for a reason!
Thanks for this!

Feeling less pain now most of the bruising is coming out although wearing a bra is more painful than normal as it sits directly on several nasty bruises.

I know I shouldn't really care but if I don't wear any support I am going to have the chest of an 80yr old and I have already given up so much because of this blooming condition

BDPpartner, Maybe try a bra with no underwires and go up a band size for time being. One that is soft and stretchy and not designed to be very supportive.

I am sending you a virtual hug. Have you ever worn a runnung bra. They are very soft but also give you support (without whincing!).

Best wishes
