Fibromyalgia Awareness Day

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
Dallas, TX

May 12th is Fibromyalgia Awareness Day, but does anyone here do anything special on this day, like wearing a FM awareness T-shirt and walk around the city, passing brochures about FM on the street, donate money to a FM research institution, etc?

I would like some inspiration. Thank you!

So funny you posted this because I was just talking to my hubby about it. I think we should all post our personal stories on FB or Twitter or whatever else is out there. Wearing a shirt is a great idea except I can't go out in public anymore due to perfumes and detergents. Maybe I could make a FMS banner?
PS I wish someone would start a FMS clothing company that didn't have seams on the inside of your clothes! Especially PJs!! Wouldn't that be great? I am sitting here right now with my clothes inside out!

My husband and I will be wearing our Fibromyalgia Awareness t-shirts and necklaces that day.

@A MyFibroTeam Member Guess what! I work for a clothing company that makes seamless clothes! I don't know if we're allowed to share links on this website, but you can google "UNIQLO" and "3D Knit". Each of our 3D knit pieces is born from just one thread to produce a seamless finish, and it's REALLY comfortable. You should definitely try.

I'm thinking about designing my own FM awareness T-shirt and wearing it that day as well as making a animated video that explains what FM is and upload it on YouTube.

Yeah, I can't lay on wrinkles. Heating pads are tough too.
