I've known someone with Fibro for years and one thing she insisted was that like most people those with Fibro are helped with what helps with life-in-general: fit body with daily physical exertion w/some strenuous activity , simple nutritious food, generally positive mindset, and importantly, paying work to feel a contributing member of society if not retiring age, and having a clear Purpose or direction in life. But what I know now (81) is that Genuine Friends are MORE important than general healthcare. I can attest to that with more research/evidence than any other thing in life.

For myself, I don't use any meds, nor did any tests, nor seem my doctor for over ten years and talked only once. I try to walk on uneven surfaces wherever I find such surface and do turns and twists of various parts of the body to keep joints nimble. I think it has helped me to get back up after having slipped on icy sidewalk this winter and being lightly hit by a car over a year ago, And yes, I get my highest pulse rate of over 130 (which is twice my at rest) by walking up ten floors in my bldg.

Life seems to demand little for health if we keep up with what it endows us at birth: curiosity, play, human connection
