She is 57 years old, has both Fibromyalgia and Lupus. She is now in a really painful state. Her visits to the doctor and hospital have not brought good results.

Do any of you fine folks suffer from either of these debilitating conditions?
I would like to refer her to a support group but don't know any. Can you be of help with some ideas? Thanks
