The 2nd Meeting 'Fibromyalgia in Focus' took place in Teresópolis, Brazil, attracting more than 100 participants including patients, health professionals, family members, students, and public representatives. This event aimed to raise awareness and foster discussions about fibromyalgia, a chronic condition characterized by widespread pain, which often faces challenges in diagnosis and treatment accessibility. The theme 'This pain is everyone's' emphasizes the collective responsibility towards understanding and supporting those affected by this syndrome.

One of the main focuses of the meeting was the enhancement and implementation of Pain Clinics, which are essential for providing comprehensive care to fibromyalgia patients. Additionally, discussions highlighted the recent Law No. 15.176/2025, which was sanctioned in July 2025 and is set to take effect on January 20, 2026. This legislation classifies fibromyalgia and related conditions as disabilities under the law, thus ensuring legal rights and access to necessary services for those affected.

The importance of such events cannot be overstated as they serve as a platform for educating the public and promoting policies that support those suffering from fibromyalgia. The engagement of various stakeholders, including families and policymakers, is crucial in driving changes in public health strategies and improving the quality of life for individuals with chronic pain conditions, making the initiative a significant step towards better recognition and treatment of fibromyalgia in Brazil.
