Who organized?

Our group is an opportunity for people with Fibromyalgia and their friends and family to come together for fellowship, coffee, lunch, or just to visit.

We meet the 3rd Thursday of each month at 11:00 a.m., at the Little Pastry Cafe, 11740 15th NE, Seattle WA 98125.

We also have an educational FMS Support Group which is held at 2 p.m. on the fourth Thursday of each month at Group Health Clinic Northgate 9800 4th Ave. NE, Seattle WA 98125. PARKING is available. Look for the bright yellow signs pointing the way to the room, which is upstairs from the pharmacy.

Because individuals with fibromyalgia are often chemically sensitive, we ask that you not wear fragrances (perfume, cologne, etc.) to our events. Thank you.

This FMS "Coffee Clatch" has been meeting at the LPC since 1998 or 1999 (fibro fog) and is a supplemental meeting to the monthly FMS educational support group that is held at Northgate Group Health on the 4th Thursday of each month.

    We actually had a full table, since there are several people who attend who aren't listed here on Meetup. It was a great get-together, with 3 newcomers. I'm sorry Rebekah and Linda weren't able to make it - I know what it's like to have FM sneak up on you and wipe you slick. We're here every week, though, usually until at least 1:00 (were there until 3:00 last week), so do try and swing by some time. I think you'll find you'll be glad you did. Hope to see you soon.

    Hello. I am reaching out to anyone and everyone who has fibro. Please e mail me at: rebekahlasala@hotmai l.com. I have been suffering from severe fibro since I was 17. I need support! I just moved to Seattle and my mother died recently. started suffering panic attacks severely last summer. since then,I have been to some awful doctors not being able to find out what is wrong with me. They think it is something with my esophagus, but my weight and the fibro compounds it. I need compassion.

    I was really looking forward to meeting fellow fibromites(?). I probable don't need to explain that i was just toast on Thursday; slept most of the day. Take care of each other

    •  Attending these meetings are the best gift I have given to myself since I was diagnosed! A wonderful group of knowledgeable supportive individuals. I highly recommend it to anyone living with Fibro.!
