Today we are discussing fibromyalgia. It has been at least 4 months since our last broadcast on the topic. Not only do we want to bring you up to speed on the newest research over the last few months, but also we will be covering how fibromyalgia is a real entity as well as the definitive causal mechanisms for this disorder. If you or someone you know suffers with fibromyalgia, please tune in and enjoy the newest data supporting why there is pain, brain fog, and often irritable bowel syndrome associated with this illness.
Please enjoy, and send us your questions. Please forward us any questions here on our website or go to our Power Health Facebook page http://powerhealthreno.com/Facebook
