The real cost of fibromyalgia

What is fibromyalgia really taking from you?

The hardest costs of fibromyalgia are not on any bill. They are the days, the plans, and the moments. Here is what yours add up to.

How many years have you lived with fibromyalgia?

In a typical month, how many days does fibromyalgia stop you doing what you want?

In a typical month, how many plans or moments do you miss or cancel? (time with people, things you love)

About how much do you spend a year on fibromyalgia? (medications, copays, supplements, treatments)

Days fibromyalgia has taken from you

The days, the plans, and the moments that fibromyalgia takes quietly. Your pain is real, and so is what it costs you.

Days a year

you can’t count on

Moments a year

missed or canceled

The honest math

The program is a one-time $1,800. The toll you just added up comes back every year fibromyalgia goes unmanaged. A skill you keep is a cost that ends.

Not a promise of results. Hypnosis is an add-on with some evidence, not a cure.

You are not imagining the toll

What the research finds, across studies, not your personal number.

$3k–$11ktypical direct medical cost per person each year in US studies.

~3xhigher yearly medical costs than people without fibromyalgia.

Mostof the burden comes from lost days and lost work, not medical bills.

~1 in 4people with fibromyalgia report receiving disability payments.

Cost figures vary widely by study and country.
