Eamonn Holmes has been supported by fans after a chronic pain flare up kept him awake into the early hours.
The North Belfast man opened up on his health battle in March 2020 and has been sharing his journey ever since.
Tweeting at 1.30am on Tuesday morning, the TV presenter said: "Hello all my #ChronicPain sufferers... I know [it's] not much help but it does help a little I feel to know we are not alone.

"Therefore from time to time I make these posts so some of you can share stories and just talk to someone who knows what you are going through."
One user replied: "I’ve suffered with chronic pain for about 10 year. I have fibromyalgia, I don’t take any medication but I’m really struggling now the weather is changing, the cold really gets to me. I can certainly sympathise with you. I’m 43 but feel 83!!! The key is to keep going, push on."
Another said: "Lying awake now with the worst shoulder pain. Going to be another long night."
Eamonn responded: "Sorry to hear... but know the feeling too."
To another social media user, he said: "This is a brief escape but maybe people will bond and stay in touch."
Recently, Eamonn covered The Queen's death and funeral alongside co-presenter Isabel Webster.
He was able to travel via a buggy whilst at Buckingham Palace, which he said was appreciated due to his mobility issues due caused by his chronic pain.
The 62-year-old said: "Getting around and organising the media area at Buckingham Palace is a massive operation especially if like me you are having mobility issues. So really appreciated the ride."
