Hello and welcome. I am sorry that you have been diagnosed with this horrid illness,

You have come to what i think is the best place for support and information.

A good place to start is on our mother site, fibroaction.org You will find a lot of info there and when you are ready you can come back onto the forum where there is always some one to talk to and help answer your questions.

We are not medicaly trained but do have a lot of experience between us.

See you later hugs sue xx

Hello Goodaheart,

Welcome to the FibroAction Community!

I hope you find the community useful as others report it to be beneficial. I'm sorry you've recently been diagnosed with Fibro although for me having a name to the way I was feeling was a relief after so many dismissive healthcare professionals.

Please can I provide you with information from our website fibroaction.org as many links which will be of use to you as newly diagnosed have been put into the FAQ, link below;

healthunlocked.com/fibroact...

FibroAction is a UK charity who are raising awareness making up-to-date, reputable and evidence-based information about Fibro more readily accessible & this is at the heart of what it we do. FibroAction is one of a number of organisations that have the Information Standard Certificate to ensure that the information we produce is clear, accurate, balanced, evidence-based and up-to-date.

Hope this helps

Best Wishes

Hi good at heart I hope you are having a good day today. For myself i think the first thing that I would recommend is pacing yourself and listening to your body. The housework is not as important as you think. I don't mean live in a hovel because you can't do that with children but instead of trying to hoover and dust everyday do it once a week. Don't be to scared to ask for help and finally don't be to hard on yourself. The things that you worry about are really not as Important as you may think :o) Good luck
