A support group is to raise awareness of a widespread muscle disease.
The group will provide advice and information about fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) on September 3 in South Street Square, Worthing.
FMS is a musculoskeletal pain and fatigue disorder which most patients say makes them ache all over.
Muscles may feel they have been pulled or overworked and sometimes twitch or burn.
There is at present no generally accepted cure but symptoms may be improved with appropriate treatment.
The Sussex and Surrey Fibromyalgia Support Group tries to help FMS sufferers through meetings, social gatherings, newsletters and a helpline.
To find out more, attend the information day or call group co-ordinator Jo Fisher on 01403 211836 between 10am and 4pm, Monday to Friday.
Jo can also be reached at fibrojoatsysandsx@hotmail.com
