East Valley Fibromyalgia Support Group 4.50 4.5011

A group of people who share stories, support, ideas and laughs! Come join us...
You've got friends who understand what you're going through.

Our members consist of men and women, 20's-60's... some of us have just been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and/or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and some of us have lived with it for 10-20 years...
Some of us have been on Disability for many years, some just a few years, some have just started the application process at DES and, of course, there are some of us who were denied access to their Social Security funds.

I would encourage everyone to watch the video which is located on our Message Board. Regardless of how long you've had Fibromyalgia, this woman lays it all out and tells it like it is. She goes through the phases that I've gone through, how spouses react, how friends react and other things to think about. Please check it out!

On a monthly basis, we gather together to offer support, ideas, suggestions, articles to read and laughs!

Our new location is better than I imagined... I love the soft, cushy chairs, the beautiful conference table for us to use, the large room that we have access to and Marlene, who is an Registered Nurse and our 'hostess' as an employee of Hospice Family Care. Read more
