Next Support Group Meeting scheduled for SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2nd at 1pm

At our last meeting we viewed PART ONE of the UCSD Chronic Pain Management video series on Fibromyalgia followed by a brief discussion. The group decided to conclude the presentation at our December 2nd meeting. Handouts will be available at the meeting which will summarize this important medical content and bring those who could not attend up-to-date on the medical experts' findings and treatment recommendations.

The regional support group will continue to meet in Education Classrooms 1 & 2 at Princeton Community Hospital.

Our December 2nd meeting will feature "Finding A Doctor Who Is Right For You" and will utilize much of what we've learned about current, evidence-based medical findings and what your primary care physician should be doing in the diagnosis and treatment of your symptoms according to the latest best medical practices for fibromyalgia syndrome.

The first support group meeting of 2007 will be on Saturday, January 6th and will feature LIVE talks and HANDS-ON demonstrations by Complimentary & Alternative Medicine (CAM) practitioners. Don't miss this one! It should be very interesting and may prove beneficial to some members in fine-tuning their overall treatment strategy to achieve greater symptom management and less pain.

Keep checking back here for updates on future topics to be covered. We have lots more valuable information to share. Be sure to invite others who may benefit from the latest news about fibromyalgia and related medical disorders.
