Fibromyalgia is not well understood by the medical community. It is known, though, that certain people are more at risk of developing fibromyalgia than others. The symptoms of fibromyalgia can include everything from widespread pain to fatigue; menstrual pain to sleep disturbances. Because of the variety of fibromyalgia symptoms, there are a number of associated conditions linked to fibromyalgia.
We focus on two objectives. The first objective, the most important, is to assist in finding the cause and cure for FM/CFS/ME and not to stop until the cure is found. The second objective is to provide resources to assist and inform those people affected by FM/CFS/ME how to live a better life.
