Have sent you some details in a pm but it is only a phone support group, hopefully someone there or on here will know of an actual group

Hi Diane -- I used to go to a Support group that met at St. John's Hospital in Livingston about 5 years ago. Sadly my husband started a new job so we had to move away. I am not sure if this group still meets but maybe you could either phone the hospital or the Edinburgh Fibromyalgia support network on 0844 887 2380 to get details. Good luck and don't forget that we all understand how you feel xx

I have considered a group too, but with working I don't have the energy or endurance to do anything in the evening or weekends. I do run a couple of websites though with chats etc. and I'd be happy to set up a chatroom that people here can use?
