Where else to go for information and support

The Internet is a great tool for conducting research and gathering information about your illness.  A search from any one of the many Internet search engines will lead you to a number of organizations that represent the needs and concerns of CFS and FM patients and work hard to raise awareness, funding and support for these debilitating diseases. Such organizations include ProHealth’s ImmuneSupport.com (which I have a link to on my Blog).

The CFIDS Association of America, The National Fibromyalgia Partnership, The National Fibromyalgia Association, The National CFIDS Association, and The National Fibromyalgia Research Association, among others.

Establishing a support system is crucial to the overall well-being of fibromyalgia and CFS patients. This can start by sharing your story on my Blog, I promise to answer your questions and I do understand what you are going through because I suffer from these diseases.

I will lead you to sources or give you information on how to educate your immediate family and friends.  They will need to be educated about the patients debilitating symptoms and significant limitations.  I want to start a support group in my area (Austin, TX) and also want to help support others via my Blog or just email me personally.

I hope and pray that is post has helped someone today. Praying for a pain free day.

Fibromyalgia & Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Resource

I have added “Fibromyalgia & Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Resource” to my site as a link. This site contains useful information such as:

  • E-mail Bulletins on the subject you are interested in,
  • Library with great information (health watch newsletter, news articles, latest drug news, etc.),
  • A Community tab with various topics (chat, message board, coping center, organizations, events, clinical trials, doctors, disability and support groups),
  • Tip of the Day,
  • They also include other sites related to the topic you are interested in.

I added my link to their website so that I can share information with others. I am trying to add my blog in many places, so I can reach people. This site was very helpful to me when I was first diagnosed. I believe it will help others too.

I initially had them send me the Tip of the Day. You select the database with the subject you would like a tip on. The current database results include:

  • Alzheimer’s
  • Arthritis
  • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
  • CFIDS & FMS
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Health

I pray and hope that this post has helped someone today.
