Hi. I am Katie. Newly diagnosed and new to the forum. I was also newly diagnosed with high cholesterol and put on a low carb diet. I am finding it difficult how to eat well for both conditions. It is not even 6 pm here and I feel ready for bed. I hate the pain along with the fatigue. Thanks for letting me vent a little.

Hi, Katie,
I'm also new to the forum today. I've never joined a forum before, so I'm sure I'll make lots of rookie mistakes. You mentioned high cholesterol--wondering what others think of the connection between high cholesterol and Fibro. I know inflammation plays a role in both. Apologies if this has already been covered in other discussion threads.

Talk about mistake I just made one below ( thanks to auto correct) but I'm trying to correct it as much as i could . I personally think that any imbalance problem in our body can easily contribute to fibro pains regardless cause fibromyalgia is very hypersensitive.

Hi All

I am also new to the forum and have just recently been diagnosed with fibro. I also have arthritis in my hands, feet and lower back, which doesn’t help! My doctor referred me to a ‘pain management’ clinic where the consultant reassured me that I would get as much support as possible to help me manage the pain. Have any of you been to a pain managment clinic and if so does it makes a difference?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
