How can you live normal with ibs and fibromyalgia?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
See details: It is possible. You have to understand that although there are medications that can provide good benefit for the pain and fatigue, there will be flares of the disease. Aerobic activity is an important part of the therapy and the more you can do, the better. Have a rheumatologist direct your care. Have a sleep study done if you have not had one already. Avoid supplements that never help.

By taking good care: Of yourself. You can allow these conditions to dictate the quality of your life. Or you can acknowledge the things which may not be possible while simultaneously discovering the things that you can do. You are not your disease. It is part of your life - a part you need to learn to live with.
