Hi. I'm new here and newly diagnosed with fibromyalgia although I've been in pain for nearly 6years. I'm hoping I can now get on with life a bit, now I know what I'm dealing with... this diagnosis is a massive step forward for me.

Hi Zipps, welcome to the group and it's lovely to meet you. What a relief it must be to finally get the diagnosis! Feel free to talk anytime you want to Hun. In the meantime, please take care.
Hi Zipps. yes it definitely helps to have a name to put to what you're suffering with. I found being diagnosed a bittersweet experience, relief that I wasn't going crazy and there was actually something wrong, mixed with sadness that I had a chronic illness. However as you say, once you know what you are dealing with you can start learning how to manage it and get on with your life. You've made a good start coming here as you will receive lots of advice and support from our friendly members.
So welcome to the forum lovely, I am sure you will find it a great help in your fibro journey. Take care. xxx

Hi zips welcome to our lovely forum. It really makes a massive difference when you know what you are dealing with and then you can carry on without the not knowing. Have a lovely weekend sweetie. 🤗🤗🤗🌹🌹🌹xxx
Hi, Zipps
Exactly my experience, too. Being able to name the demon makes such a difference. - and you can share your triumphs, fears and experiences with the amazing people here, now you know what you are dealing with!
