Fibro Exercise?

I was diagnosed with Fibro about 4 years ago. I know that exercise is good for fibro as well and general health. However, I have yet to find any exercise that I can tolerate. Walking makes my legs hurt and I love to swim but can only tolerate a warm pool (such as a rehab therapy pool) - even a heated pool at the local gym just isn't hot enough and my muscles turn to lumps of rock. Any suggestions?

I also have sever muscle leg pain. I just have to force myself to do whatever I can until I just can't anymore and then go home and wrap my legs up as tight as I can get them in a blanket. My only suggestion is maybe try swinging on a swing set at a park or something. That way you will still be excercising your legs by swinging them.
