Coping and support

By Mayo Clinic staff

Living with a chronic condition such as Paget's disease of bone, even if you don't have symptoms, can be stressful. Focus on what you can do to reduce your risk of complications, such as exercising regularly and eating a healthy diet. Discuss any new symptoms or changes in your symptoms with your doctor. Effective treatments are available.

You may also find it helpful to join a support group for people with Paget's disease. To learn about support resources available in your area, contact The Paget Foundation.
