BBC Morning Live featured a good piece on fibromyalgia this morning. It featured Dr Punam speaking about the condition how it affects people, the difficulty in diagnosis and treatment options. Janette Manrara was the presenter and thought the subject was well covered. It had some additional impact as both Jannete and Dr Punam have personal expereince of the condition with their mothers suffering from the condition.
Dr Punam's reflection on the challenges that her mother expereinced many years ago as opposed to our awareness of the condition now was an important aspect. It can be found in iplayer for the next year or so at https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m001q95f/morning-live-series-5-08092023 and the fibro piece starts at the 23:18 mark till the 28:46 mark.
Thanks to all that took part and helping to raise awareness especially during our awareness week.
Thank you to JManara and Dr Punam for their contribution to the programme. You can find the clip here
