I went to a physical therapist and we experimented with different stretching exercises until we found some that didn't hurt (too much, LOL) and I could do some while sitting. I can't not do some exercising because of my fibro and I have a weight problem also. I can't do aerobic exercises unless in water and now that it is cold, I don't even do those (getting all warm and the getting in a cold car just makes it all worse).

I'm afraid it is all trial and error...I used to walk up to 20 miles a week, now I have difficulty getting around the grocery store. (sigh)
