Dealing with Fibromyalgia Symptoms: Seeking Tips and Advice

I've been dealing with symptoms of fibro for as long as I can remember (mostly the muscle and joint pain/fatigue and the CONSTANT exhaustion) and just recently found out that there's a diagnosis for what I'm feeling. I've told my doctor and she said diagnosis is a process, but I'm working on it. Any tips?

*hugs for all* I feel your frustrations. One of the things that helped me with the joint pain was cutting out dairy (inflammatory) and gluten. Now I only get bad joint pain when I have a virus or infection. The fatigue, though... still looking for help with that.

Vitamin D helps me so dose coffee or tea for the being tired part. As for work I had to stop working. That was the hardest part of this for me. Because now I’m having to live on only SSI witch barley pays my bills.

I work at McDonald's and if I work longer than 3 hours I get really fatigued and my joints hurt really bad. I try to work though because I need money for school
