About Fibromyalgia Action UK

Up to 2.7 million people in the UK live with Fibromyalgia (Fibro) & the awareness of this condition remains very low.

Fibromyalgia Action UK (FMAUK) is a registered charity raising awareness & making evidence-based information about Fibromyalgia easily accessible. Fibromyalgia Action UK uses HealthUnlocked to provide those living with Fibromyalgia a way to communicate with others & share their experiences. We have community volunteers who also live with Fibro that work hard at maintaining a supportive & friendly community atmosphere. Many members post about diagnosis, research findings, treatments & all things Fibro plus we have regular polls, which starts an interesting discussion within the community.

Guidelines Highlights

Be kind, respectful, and understanding of one another
Actively listen & have in mind that everyone deals with their own private challenges
Post from your own experience
"For me, this worked..." rather than "You should do this..."
