Welcome Coco 1969,

Nice to make your acquaintance.

This is a lovely warm forum, lots of helpful people and out moderated are the best.

I hope you get some useful advice here, fibro is the gift that keeps on giving I'm afraid!

Have you googled 'the spoon theory'?

It sums it up really well.

Cloud hugs to you xx

Hi Coco1969 welcome to our wonderful forum ☺ I'm sure you will come to find the forum invaluable in chatting to others who are going through the same experience as you, talking to others at different stages of their lives with Fibro and learning from their experiences.

It does help with the whole process and I wish I had found the site years ago. I have had Fibro for nearly 30 yrs and I'm still learning about it, like we all are.

I'm sorry you have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, it takes a while to sink in my friend and although it a relief to know what is wrong with you because it usually takes a long time & lots of tests before you do know.

I see TheAuthor has give you the site link already so I'll just say hi & look forward to chatting with you on the forum.

Peace, luv n light

Jan xx

Hi Coco,

A very warm welcome to this very helpful forum. Always people willing to listen, even if it's a moan, rant or good news. I have found it so helpful and informative and motivational too, I'm sure you will also.

Wishing you a lovely day, hopefully pain free and restful x

Hello Coco1969 and a warm welcome to our friendly fibro forum where you can get help, advice, support and understanding, along with a chuckle or two to lighten the day.

Being told you have fibro can give you mixed feelings, pleased that you have a recognisible illness you can put a name to, but unhappy that there is no magic tablet to take away the pain and fatigue. It will take a little time to get used to.

You have come to the right place here as we all share our experiences so you need never feel alone.

Hope to see you around the forum.

Kay
