Welcome!

This site is dedicated to providing information and support for people with both joint hypermobility (including Ehlers-Danlos and Benign Joint Hypermobility Syndromes, or any form of Hypermobility Syndrome) and Fibromyalgia or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (aka Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome, or Myalgic Encephalopathy in the U.K. and Australia). It is the first of its kind and provides information on these conditions, and also links to many sites with much more detailed information. It's important to note that this is an amateur site, not an official local, national or international support or information group. Hopefully, however, small individual endeavours like this will pave the way for such official groups to emerge.

In addition, the Hypermobility & Fibromyalgia Group (hm-ed-fm) is the only discussion/support group online for people with both of these conditions. All are welcome! Click on the "Support: Talk to Others" link in the navigation bar on the left to learn more about the mailing list, as well as the vibrant Webforum and Chat Room.

Mission Statement

The objective is to increase awareness about the connection between Hypermobility (HMS) and Fibromyalgia (FMS), and their respectively related conditions. In addition, the discussion list, Webforum and Chat Room are intended to provide places where people with both of these conditions can meet and exchange information and support, allowing them hopefully to better cope with their illnesses on a daily basis.
