Fibra (an april fool day prank - I made it up!)

[hamble99b]

Just seen my consultant and he says from today fibomyalgia is now known as FIBRA !

Apparently the clothing and retail association have an old copyright on both fibre and fibro - grrrrr!

Yes, I have read about this in the Medical Gazette. The NHS could face action from the clothing industry if they keep referring to it as Fibro because they hold the copyright!

Take care

It was a really brilliant one sandra99b. I loved the way the volunteers piled in for support!

Roll on next April fools day!

Isn't that typical I liked calling it Fibro oh well Fubra it is then.

Thanks so much for letting us know hate to be using the wrong abbreviation and find myself in trouble.

I will just disappear and check the Med Gas.

It was all good fun, just glad it didnt slip out into normal land. They're confoosed enough as it is.
