Hello all,

I’m new here! Diagnosed with fibro today after being referred to a consultant with queried arthritis. Its been almost a decade and to finally have a consultant believe me in what I’m saying and feeling is amazing. Finally an answer to all my pain!

I guess I’m wondering if you have any general hints/tips/tricks to help me deal day to day,

Look forward to becoming a part of this community!

Pacing your day is very helpful. Not over doing things on good days is not advised as the next day you will suffer. Starting the day with some gentle stretching exercises I find also helps. My advice to you would be to deal with problems in isolation on this site. For example you have painful feet when walking and you want to know what shoes others find helpful. You would get many answers. Welcome to the group .
