Today. . . let's talk about "fibromyalgia" and discover the possibilities . . .


So what exactly is . . . "fibromyalgia"???


Well . . . it's a condition that causes pain all over the body, sleep problems, fatigue and often emotional and mental distress.


"Fibromyalgia" affects about 4 million adults in the U.S. every year . . .


And unfortunately . . . sciences says . . . the "cause" is "unknown" . . . therefore . . . there is "no cure". But . . . it can be effectively treated and managed.


Okay . . . so, so many questions to ask . . .


First . . . what's "fibromyalgia" really all about???


Well . . . it's an illness that can be triggered by a stressful event (physical or emotional), an injury or even a viral infection. And women are more likely to develop "fibromyalgia" then men.


Now . . . "fibromyalgia" is considered a "Psychophysiololic" disorder . . . because it is generated by the brain . . . along with other chronic pain conditions like migraines, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic fatigue and pelvic pain syndrome


This is a "mind-body" disorder . . . and the first signs would be . . .


Fatigue, lack of energy, trouble sleeping, depression or anxiety, memory problems and trouble concentrating, brain fog, headaches, muscle twitches and/or cramps and numbness or tingling in the hands and feet.


And guess what??? . . . even TMJ of the jaw.
