 Has anyone seen the newest Fibro commercial. I saw it today. This one actually looks more believeable than the otherr with the lady writing in her diary. She is a mom playing with her kids but looks to be in pain( rubbing arms, legs) they show some of the tender areas and she actually makes a comment to do with How do I get them to see it's not all in my head. or something like that. It is from Pfizer the makers of lyrica but does not specifically mention Lyrica by name. they gave a web site for a Fibro type kit to better discuss with your doctor your symptoms. I missed the web site. I like this one better than the painting lady just wanted to get everyone's opinion

 I "heard" it the other nite, hubby was watching tv and i was trying to go to sleep and had my head covered with the covers and the commercial came on. Hubby said "well there is a new commercial about what you have". I looked at the tv and caught the very end of it. I have been watching for it more the last few days but havent seen it again.

 Haven't seen it. But then again...I don't watch T.V.!

I guess that would be a good start, huh?

Do you know what channel you saw it on.

Thanks!

I'd LOVE to see it!!

 I don't remember what channel I think it was a regular network channel. And no she is not all perfect. She looks in pain. Since It is not an ad specifically for a med it is more towards this is the disease, it is real, if you want more info here is a website. I really widh I could remember the web site. I haven't seen it since that day.
