Fibromyalgia - Unification Theory; Connecting the Dots. (en Inglés)
Reseña del libro "Fibromyalgia - Unification Theory; Connecting the Dots. (en Inglés)"
With advances in research and technology, our knowledge of medical disorders generally improves over time. Unfortunately, the disease known as fibromyalgia still remains poorly understood, although it produces chronic symptoms in thousands of patients every year. In this concise, comprehensive guide to fibromyalgia, Martin Morell, MD, presents much of the academic research done on this frustrating condition as well as evidence from his own clinic, which has treated four thousand fibromyalgia patients over the last twelve years. Although patients' experiences vary, this disease is characterized by widespread pain and neural symptoms. Just a simple touch or grab on the arm is extremely painful. Like overloaded electrical circuits, normal pathways in the nervous system burn up. Over time, this damages the brain, leading to additional symptoms. This first-of-its-kind reference offers patients, family members, and caregivers a complete picture of fibromyalgia, including information on differential diagnosis; associated symptoms such as fatigue, anxiety, numbness, and memory problems; possible genetic factors; and treatment for sleep disturbances, daytime pain, and reduced energy and concentration. The cutting-edge information gathered here will quickly bring you up to speed on what we presently know about fibromyalgia, as well as what we can expect to learn moving forward.
