Fibromyalgia is a complicated, vicious beast. It methodically steals your quality of life, it robs you of sleep, and submerses you in terrible daily pain and debilitating fatigue. The traditional medical approach to this condition is that the cause of fibromyalgia is a mystery, that it is incurable, and that the only way to manage it is to take lots of medications to cover up your pain and other symptoms. Now, for the first time, we provide a fresh look at this condition in a way that has never been done before. We address some of the most obscure symptoms that you may have not known are associated with fibromyalgia, as well as what might have caused your fibromyalgia in the first place, and how to differentiate between different kinds of fibromyalgia. We also discuss the critical role of the nervous system and how its malfunction causes fibromyalgia. Lastly, we discuss positive actions that you can start taking today to help measure and address the neurological, physical, emotional, and chemical symptoms associated with fibromyalgia. Along every step of the way, you will be able to objectively test your results. This book is meant as a guide to not only understand fibromyalgia better, but to help you design a plan to conquer it, starting today.
