Get ready to turn the entire month of May purple! May is Fibromyalgia Awareness Month.
May 12th is Fibromyalgia Awareness Day, but from today I have create a social media just for fibromyalgia and others invisible illnesses and a blog. I can write about my life with fibromyalgia, mental health and more. Many of my older posts will be directed to my new profile and making it easy to find information, experiences...
It's estimated that 2% to 8% of the global population may have fibromyalgia. However, the exact number is difficult to pinpoint as it can be challenging to diagnose. As one of the 160 million people worldwide affected with fibro, I think it's important to design a special account to talk about visibility.
So, during Fibromyalgia Awareness Month, I'm claiming it. I'll be sharing my story and helping to amplify others. And I hope you, whatever your personal corner of the world looks like, will too. This process allows you to educate local and state officials about how much fibromyalgia is affecting their region, and create a newsworthy event to raise awareness.
