Simple but good. I'll add one. Get a massage. I have a client with fibro and she'll come to see me as often as she can. She says she feels really good for about a week. I know everyone is different but I have heard from other people with fibro that massage can help a lot. Just make sure that you find a therapist whom actually listens to you and don't be afraid to get off the table if you are hurting. Some massage therapists need to listen better. “You have to let people help you.” Simple but good. I’ll add one. Get a massage.

Pace yourself when doing your tasks. Take frequent breaks. Organize closets and cabinets so that the heavy and most frequently used items are easy to reach -between middle of thighs and shoulder high. Set time limits to finish a task. For example to clean a closet for 30 minutes a day until finished. Pliers with cushioned handles will help for any jobs you need some leverage with. After washing your venetian blinds, dry with a sheet of bounce and there will be no more static or dust. Works well on computer and TV screens too. Use a floor mop with a angled handle to make the job of washing floors easier on your back. There are brooms out there now with a nice cushioned grip on the handles.
