Not one to usually one to share my personal stuff online but here it goes.
I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia a couple of years ago and seems to be under control, I do have my bad days, more recently I’ve been having issues with costochondritis. They say it’s from where I snapped my sternum when I was younger plus the fibro making it worse which can cut short my day of riding. I currently only hard tails and have converted my main ride from rigid to suspension, to help reduce the forces on the chest area. I’m not one for big jumps etc as I prefer the long days or multi days in the saddle and this is not helping when I feel I cannot breathe only after a couple of hours.
Just wondering if anyone else has similar problems and how have been able to keep it in check?
