The Fibroduck Foundation is a registered charity committed to funding bio medical research for Fibromyalgia

On our FaceBook Fans Page we ask our members daily questions.

These are designed to help show people what it's like to live with Fibromyalgia. The questions (and replies generated) became so well received that we have started a dedicated blog to archive them.

If you are newly diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, you may find this blog very helpful. By reading our archives, we hope you'll also feel less isolated and alone.

*I agree with you, I'm having enough trouble at the moment with dla and the rest of the benefits that I should get!

*What a load of stupid ideas they have come up with, we maybe disabled and can't do most of the things that we could do before if we became disabled later on in life or for those that were born disabled can't do what an able bodied person can do, now we are going to be penalised for it where is our disabled rights in that?
