FIBRO DAY!!!!
Please help support all those that have Fibromyalgia.
Fibromyalgia Awareness Day is May 12. This day promotes awareness and understanding of fibromyalgia, one of the most common types of chronic widespread pain in the United States.
More than 6 million Americans struggle with fibromyalgia, a real medical condition. It includes all-over muscle pain that can make it hard to do even day-to-day tasks. The pain may vary from mild to severe.
For many, the journey to diagnosis can be difficult. People with fibromyalgia may not know what is wrong with them or what is causing their pain. Diagnosis can take time. And even after a doctor makes a diagnosis, people with fibromyalgia need to learn how to manage it.
Fibromyalgia Awareness Day is also a good time to reach out to other people you know who suffer from chronic widespread pain or might want more information about fibromyalgia. You might consider sharing this e-mail with them as a start.
