That this House welcomes the creation of Fibromyalgia and Us, a comic published in Dundee designed to spread awareness of the symptoms, the difficulties and what works through the lived experiences of those living with Fibromyalgia, and their families; recognises the success of the comic since its launch in December 2017, having been downloaded nearly 11,000 times in over 75 countries; welcomes the support offered by NHS Tayside in ensuring all GP Surgeries in the region received paper copies; and wishes them the best of luck with their fundraising efforts so they can publish translated versions of the comic.
