Fibromyalgia

Perhaps this could be a place for people with Fibromyalgia to chat.


I have had this condition for over 30 years and have some insights as to how to cope with such a debilitating illness long term.


How do you cope?

Hey there @Supermandamus

Thank you for your post!

I personally take medication to help lessen the pain I experience as a way of moving away from painkiller usage. I generally go out less on day trips because they tend to lead to pain. I make sure to rest when I can and need to and try not to be too hard on myself if I've not had a particularly productive day!

How have you been managing with your condition?

Must admit I don't find painkillers kill pain, they need to be renamed perhaps lol? The s lots of different meds for fibro that work better I find. And also the Paiin Clinic, or Pain Management Team or whatever they are called in other countries?
