Odd Fellows Lodge #17 Bake Sale in support of Fibromyalgia Awareness Day (May 12 of each year)

What is Fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia is a disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain accompanied by fatigue, sleep, memory and mood issues.  Researchers believe that fibromyalgia amplifies painful sensations by affecting the way your brain processes pain signals. (Mayo Clinic)

Fibromyalgia Awareness Day (May12) events take place all around the world in an effort to raise public awareness and give hope and support to the millions of individuals with fibromyalgia and other chronic pain conditions.

Please come join us at our bake sale on Saturday, October 24, 2015.  Odd Fellows members will be in front of Stop and Shop in Groton from 10 AM until 1 PM.  You will find more information about fibromyalgia:  who is affected by it?  what are the symptoms?  how does it work?  what about pain management?

We will have many lovely baked goods for you to enjoy.  All we ask in return is a donation to the National Fibromyalgia Association.

Fibromyalgia is real. Pass it on.
