Hi the NHS website has a good lot of info on fibro and also julie put on here today an earlier blog a poem that someone had written about how fibro affects suffreers so that may be worth printing out there is lots of info as well on the tags and archives that may be of interest to you as i think they really need to know about YOU personally and how it affects you , but there is plenty for you to get your teeth into hope you get whatyou can love to you diddle x

Hi Sue, if you look on the FibroAction website you will find lots of good detailed info about FM.

In the past I have need to collect evidence about FM and I just search all websites and collate evidence by copy and pasting.

There are so many websites which will give you good info that you will be able to relate to. Good luck xx
