Fibromates North West Fibromyalgia Support Group are celebrating their 4th birthday this year by raising awareness of fibromyalgia with a comedy event at The Naval Club, (Near Rocket Flyover) 38 Bowring Park Rd, Liverpool L14 3NN
Scottish comedienne Carina Macleod, who recently appeared at the Glasgow Comedy Festival will be performing her one woman show, ‘Fibro My Arth’ for the first time in England.
Carina has fibromyalgia (and osteoarthritis) and is trying to find the funny side of fibromyalgia; she says “The only way to cope with the condition was to write a show about it.”
Rather than let the condition rule her life, Carina found that the best way to cope was to include the day-to-day trials of living with fibromyalgia in her touring stand-up show, Fibro my Arth!.
“They say laughter is the best medicine and I definitely recommend laughter for any fibromyalgia sufferer,” says Carina.
Carina has recently toured the Hebrides and surrounding areas with her sell-out show.
Venue: The Naval Club, (Near Rocket Flyover) 38 Bowring Park Rd, Liverpool L14 3NN
Date: Thursday 28th June 2018 at 8.30pm (Doors open 7.30pm)

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.
