Hello and welcome!

Sorry to hear about your diagnosis, but at least you know what you are dealing with now.

Has your consultant suggested a pain management course? Have you thought about joining a local support group? There is a section on fmauk.org with information about support group s.

For me, living with this condition is all about pacing myself, taking gentle exercise (yoga, swimming and walking) and trying to remain positive (sometimes difficult!) Avoiding stressful situations is also important, as is lots of forward planning and lots of lists for my forgetfulness (fibrofog).

Take care xxx
