Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am raising money and awareness for Fibromyalgia. I'm selling jamberry nail wraps and donating my commission to the charity as well as doing other fun games and raffels raise money. 

Fibromyalgia is a disorder that causes muscle pain and fatigue (feeling tired). People with fibromyalgia have pain and tenderness throughout the body.
People with fibromyalgia may also have other symptoms, such as:

Trouble sleeping
Morning stiffness
Headaches
Painful menstrual periods
Tingling or numbness in hands and feet
Problems with thinking and memory (sometimes called “fibro fog”).
A person may have two or more coexisting chronic pain conditions. Such conditions can include chronic fatigue syndrome, endometriosis, fibromyalgia, inflammatory bowel disease, interstitial cystitis, temporomandibular joint dysfunction, and vulvodynia. It is not known whether these disorders share a common cause.






sponsors research to help understand fibromyalgia and find better ways to diagnose, treat, and prevent it. Researchers are studying:

Why people with fibromyalgia have increased sensitivity to pain.
Medicines and behavioral treatments.
Whether there is a gene or genes that make a person more likely to have fibromyalgia.
The use of imaging methods, such as magnetic resonate imaging (MRI), to better understand fibromyalgia.
Inflammation in the body and its relationship to fibromyalgia.
Nondrug therapies to help reduce pain.
Methods to improve sleep in people with fibromyalgia.
