Fibro Help

I was very surprised when I was looking at my site statistics that I was getting a lot of hits from search engines because I had linked to Fibro Help.  Because of this, I decided to collect up some of the better informational sites and list them here for the benefit of those who are looking for help or infomation about this awful affliction.  I've also added the links to my side bar so that they will always be available.

National Fibromyalgia Association

National Fibromyalgia Research Association

National Institute of Health

Those are the three great sites that will answer just about any questions that one might have about Fibro.  I would however like to warn you that when you use a search engine to look up Fibomyalgia, be aware that there are tons of sites offering a "quick cure" or trying to sell you a membership or some miracle cure.  I hope this infomation will lend aid and comfort to those who are suffering from FMS and to educate those who know someone who may need the support of a friend or family member. 

If you are a visitor to this site for the first time and have a good link to suggest, please click on the comment link below and share the information with all those seeking help and information.   Perhaps we can all band together and create a community or support group that benefits us all...Bunny

Validation

I have mentioned before that I suffer from Fibromyalgia.  It's a condition described as widespread chronic pain and tenderness, other symptoms are chronic fatigue, depression and flu like symptoms.  I was shocked the other evening when I sat and watched the first commercial I had ever seen concerning fibromyalgia.  The commercial, in my opinion, is farely accurate in it's depiction of the "syndrome".  They tell you there is hope, they tell you to call an 800 number or go to the website www.FIBROHOPE.org.  I'm sure all of the sudden publicity about this is because the FDA just approved the drug Lyrica for treatment of fibromyalgia.  I don't care if the pharmacutical company is trumpeting their victory or trying to monopolize on the fact that they have the only drug "approved for treatment", I just care that finally, finally the public is being educated on this terrible ailment....Bunny
