Hello from a new member
Hi everyone,
My name is Mark and I have been suffering with osteoarthritis, fibromyaglia and chronic fatigue for about 3-4 years after I broke my back. I am keen to meet more people who understand the struggles of daily life with these conditions and chronic pain in general.
I would love to know if there are any in person support groups to make some new friends.

Hello @MarkP welcome to the online community
You have OA, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue and are keen to meet people who understand the daily challenges living with arthritis. You have come to the right place. We are a friendly group who provide a safe place to support each other and our families whilst living with arthritis.
I attach some links which I hope you will find interesting
We are all being encouraged to keep our muscles and joints as mobile and flexible as possible and so I include the stretching videos which you can tailor to suit your own condition and your own pace. Many members find them really useful and have been surprised after a while that they are very beneficial. I hope you will think so as well. Do let us know how you get on .
Best wishes
Poppyjane
