Today we are discussing fibromyalgia. We have done many broadcasts on fibromyalgia relative to neurologic dysfunction and autoimmune problems. Today, we are aiming to bring all these topics together for a full picture so that the fibromyalgia patient can better understand their own symptoms and their pain.
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
