Cura-Care's team explore what it is like to live with Fibromyalgia, with first hand explanations from team member Kate.

Kate describes her experiences from the origins of her diagnosis, the process of being diagnosed and how this condition impacts her life every day now. We learned so much and we hope you do too.

''Fibromyalgia is a condition that causes widespread pain and extreme tiredness.

Symptoms of fibromyalgia vary from person to person. The main symptom is pain all over your body.

There's no cure for fibromyalgia, but treatments like painkillers, talking therapies and exercise programmes may help ease some of your symptoms.

It's not clear what causes fibromyalgia. It can start after a stressful event like an injury, illness or the death of a loved one.''
