#NationalDiversityMonth is a time to celebrate the unique differences that make our country a more vibrant & inclusive place

As we celebrate diversity it is important to recognize the contributions of marginalized communities, including those with disabilities like #Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia occurs in up to 60% of patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) & up to 70% of patients with a diagnosis of fibromyalgia have symptoms of IBS

They can flare individually or at the same time, either way they are both #painful & #disabling
