Fibromyalgia is often secondary to another illness that may need treatment. Although you think you may have Fibromyalgia the symptoms are very similar to many other illnesses. Please do not presume you have Fibromyalgia until you have been diagnosed. If your Doctor thinks that you may have this illness you should be referred to a Rheumatologist. Unfortunately, this may take some time, as there are usually very long waiting lists, please be patient. If you have not been diagnosed we will still be very happy for you to attend the meetings and receive information.
We have a variety of guest speakers who come along to our meetings to help sufferers understand the condition better and find more ways of helping themselves. We provide a point of contact and reassure sufferers that they are not alone. We provide information from our Library and direct people to the correct services or voluntary bodies for help.
Although there is no cure for the condition at present there are many ways you can manage and improve your condition.
