Hi Alfie and welcome to the site. Hopefully you wll find it most helpful. Fibromyalgia is very different for eveyone. First and foremost remember to pace yourself with everything that you do even on better days. Also try to do a little excersise every day where possible. I take our dog out each morning and it's surprising how it helps your mental health and you get to know different people to jsut say a few words to. Take care, be kind to yourself and very best wishes 🙏

Hi Alfie great to hear from you. Even though I have had fibromyalgia diagnosed since 2007 I have only just recently reached out to this group myself as I cope very well and wanted to share with others what might work for them. I have a complementary therapy of reiki and I meditate daily and this has really helped me and may help you too. We are all individuals and have different methods of coping so good luck with it all.

Hiya Jackie, welcome to the group. I'm sure you will find lots of answers here to all your questions. It does take a while to get used to your own fibro symptoms and learn how to deal with them all
