Talking about FMS

Hiya,

I suffer with fibromyalgia and have done since I was 15 years old. I am currently at university and have decided to dedicate my dissertation to raising awareness and understanding FMS better.

I am wondering if anyone suffering with Fibromyalgia would be willing to talk to me?

If so, please send me a message if you're interested in talking about your experience.

Thanks guys.

Hello, May I ask what your dissertation will be about? What aspects of fibromyalgia are you looking into? I imagine all participants will be anonymous. Will you conduct the interview by asking for written answers to specific questions or a questionnaire? will the interview be over the telephone? How many volunteers will you need to take part?

Hi, thank you for your response. My dissertation will be a radio documentary. The title will be 'Diagnosing and Living with Fibromyalgia. What is it?'

I am able to hide the identity of participants however your voice will be audible and may get recognised by family and friends. I will need interviews either over the phone or face to face ideally.

I am going to attempt to publish the documentary once it is complete however that may not happen, depending on the success of my dissertation.
