Hey Suki2168

I don't think so, I know for example when I applied for my disabled badge I had to have an assessment as we don't automatically qualify xxx

In us yes! And it should be! I feel sometimes my fibro pain is worse than my lupus!! Its excruciating!!

Pain just ducks the life right out of me! Its always everywhere? Never ends even on pain meds.

So depressing. 😥

DEFO 😊

Hi Suki2168

This petition fighting for Fibro to be made a disability has an amazing amount of signature 55k and going up! If you haven't signed maybe you should consider doing so,

change.org/p/uk-parliament-...

I have supported it but do honestly think even if it gets the recognition it deserves whether the need for more research and a change of categorisation in the World Health Organisation to possibly Neurological (as some research is pointing towards this) will need to be in place before anything changes for the better.

I remain hopeful and positive it will help, hence signing :) and I will always keep supporting and fighting Fibro ........ 🦋
