FMA UK are delighted that a clinical director has been appointed for Musculoskeletal diseases and expect this to have an impact on the treatment opportunities for all people with an MSK including fibromyalgia.
A campaign for this position has been ongoing for a number of years as the multidisciplinary treatment plan recommended had not been implemented nationally. Through ARMA and working with other organisations we hope to ensure that Peter Kay is fully aware of the problems and the possible solutions to the poor outcomes for patients with fibromyalgia along with the other MSK conditions.

If your Health Care Professional needs some education in fibromyalgia you can request that an FMA UK Health Professionals Pack is sent out to them. All we need is the name of the Health CareProfessional and the address of their practice. We will then send a pack to their surgery addressed from us to them.
You can request a medical pack using this form.
You can find a Support Group near you by contacting the Regional Coordinator for your area. If there does not happen to be a support group near you then maybe you can join with some other members and set one up. Support groups provide a social benefit as well as the opportunity to share tips on coping with fibro. They come in all shapes and sizes and we are often told how they have helped people.
