I have been trying to exercise more after months ..infact the last 2 years very inactive due to huge flare/downturn.
So walking round my large living room in circuits or around my garden building up slowly from a few minutes to eventually 10 15 or 20 minutes a few times a day depending on how...
Okay, so i am 19 and have had fibro for almost 5 years. Its been really severe and even mild sometimes. But it really effects me and my ability to do normal everyday things. Juggling a job, a full course load in uni and outside activities is a lot for anyone but even more so for me.
