Hi my name is Linda, I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia a few weeks ago after several years of going to different doctors. I wanted to post on here before but forgot my password when I joined (my memory is shocking) but at last I'm here now. I hope I'm doing this right and look forward to chats with people who truly understand. You are all doing a great thing by sharing.

Hi linda, I am so pleased you found your way back here! it is the best forum for support and advice that I know of. You can find lots of information if you click on the butterfly in the top right of the screen, which can be helpful if you are recently diagnosed. the members here are also extremely caring and full of good knowledge and advice, so feel free to ask anything and we will try our best to help :-)

We also have a lot of fun, with "virtual tours" and fun Fridays, so if you wish to have your spirits lifted a bit, do feel free to join in. :-)

Welcome Linda :-) :-)

Hi Linda,

welcome :-). This is a great place to be I think. I'm just making a cuppa so help yourself to a cup and a hobnob biscuit and settle yourself in.

Hugs
