The outcome of the tests being the actual, tangible evidence of its existence! It now seems miraculous to me that I will not necessarily be relegated to the category of whiner/drama queen forever!

But, it is a good idea to familiarize yourself with it so you know where to go when you have a question. Enjoy, and I hope you find it very helpful. Having all three, I know, makes is more difficult to identify perpetuating factors. Addressing the myofascial component appropriately is probably the most important, because continued research bears out that it is the biggest peripheral pain generator in ALL chronic pain conditions.The Pained Ink Slayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09495729147432131238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3069533709334209690.post-64035851377148435422014-05-26T17:29:15.439-07:002014-05-26T17:29:15.439-07:00I just recently got the big book & have read s...I just recently got the big book & have read some of it, with a lot more to go. I was diagnosed with fribro in the 1980's. I had a wonderful doctor back then & he had just come back from a medical seminar on fibromyalgia. Based on what he learned, he was finally able to diagnose me on the spot, having been dealing with the symptoms for a couple of years already. I have more recently had the additional diagnoses of myofacial pain syndrome & chronic fatigue immune dysfunction.<br /><br />I hadn't realized that medical professionals were alert to our conditions that long ago. It is nice to know that someone has been trying to figure it out even back then.sbncmohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14224011065902546686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3069533709334209690.post-65767914608284782012014-05-26T13:30:09.217-07:002014-05-26T13:30:09.217-07:00You are so welcome Julie.

I've even seen some articles comment that they believe earlier references may go back to the Bible.Juliehttp://www.countingmyspoons.comnoreply@blogger.com
