About TFA

Taiwan Fibromyalgia Association (TFA) was formed in November 2017 by fibromyalgia (FMA) patients and their families from all over Taiwan. Their doctors encouraged them to form this advocacy group by obtaining the non-profit organization certification from the Ministry of Interior. 

TFA’s goal is to build on a lasting support network between patients, medical professionals and scientists who have shown trust, solidarity and appreciation for more awareness for Fibromyalgia.
