CANFib was born so that we could meet... and talk
One of the most told stories from women who have experienced Fibroids has been "I feel alone" and this is the underlying reason for CANFib having been founded. Being alone with a condition that 1 in 4 peers has is outright absurd, and there are very few reasons for it having to be so. One of those reasons was "how do we find each other" - an issue that was easily solved by Founder Patricia Lee, who is expert in online communications and technology.

CANFib Main Facebook Open Forums
CANFib Discussion Group
The CANFib main forum on Facebook is open and public. None of the changes we have seen in treatments could have happened and no new treatments will be of interest to the pharmaceutical community if they don't know we need and want it to happen. Please LIKE this page, please talk here. You can keep it general and still make a voice for us all.
We also encourage men to join the open forum as for MOST women with fibroids there is a man going through it with her. He has perspectives and input that is of value and we care about all aspects of this condition.
CANFib Fibroids Private Closed Forums
