Why Donate?
Effective treatments for fibromyalgia are sorely lacking. Government funding institutions should do more, but they don’t. That’s why AFSA’s grants are essential for helping researchers collect data to successfully compete for large-scale government awards.
About Fibromyalgia
Pain all over, drooping with fatigue, can’t sleep at night, and can’t think during the day? That’s just a fraction of what you are up against.
Funded Research Project Spotlight
Infections make fibro symptoms flare, even mild nuisances that don’t faze others. An AFSA-funded study shows that immune cells in the brain and substances in the blood are working together to make you feel worse.
Finding Help
Fibromyalgia is not like most medical conditions. The symptoms are numerous and invisible. Finding an empathetic doctor and other knowledgeable healthcare providers is essential, but where do you start?
