Episode 29,   Mar 28, 2012, 11:30 AM

Living with fibromyalgia, and the medical research offering hope for the future.

Fibromyalgia affects an estimated 2.7 million people in the UK, yet it is a condition which is poorly understood leaving the people with it often facing ignorance and prejudice. Presenter Paul Evans, who has fibromyalgia himself, talks with Lexy Barber about her experiences of coping with it. We also hear from Professor Ernest Choy and Professor Dwight Moulin about advances in medical knowledge of the condition and possible ways of managing symptoms.

  • Prof Ernest Choy, Professor of Rheumatology, Cardiff University
  • Prof Dwight Moulin, Professor in the Departments of Clinical Neurological Sciences and Oncology, University of Western Ontario
