There will be an article in the paper here on Thursday about Fibro and May 12th. I will scan the paper and add the article this weekend. I know that this paper is not online. Because it is just a small paper. I can't wait to read the one that you have cadburry.

I looked up your paper and this is what I found:

Living with constant pain.. that's what life is like for one local woman with fibromylagia.

But she's not alone...and that's why the Southwest Virginia Pain Intiative is holding a series of presentations dealing with pain in women.

Saturday morning, News 7's Health Reporter Joy Sutton sat down with fibromylagia sufferer Pat Draper to discuss the illness.

The Southwest Virginia Pain Initiative's next presentation will be held at Tabernacle Baptist Church in Salem on May 12th from 6 to 8 pm.
