I need to make you aware

[thesurgeon 51]

It's International Fibromyalgia Awareness Day today;

Unfortunately I've got this chronic pain and fatigue syndrome and it 'sucks' big time.

A couple of links, and one from the local paper running the story;

http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Fibromyalgia/Pages/Introduction.aspx NHS Choices

http://www.thisiswiltshire.co.uk/news/9701110.Sufferer_wants_more_people_to_realise_devastating_impact_of_illness/ Wiltshire News

Hopefully the more people who are aware this condition the less will think it's 'all in your head', and 'you look fine so there can't be anything wrong', - if only they knew.

Hope this isn't seen as spamming by the mods ^o)

Thanks for being aware.

I was watching a programme lastnight and this woman was having bad fibromyalgia, it turned out it was her breast implants, so that could be a cause 8-)
