Greetings to my fibro
friends
I think we’ve had
everything weatherwise this week; wind, snow, rain, even some sunshine! I am really looking forward to the spring and
some much warmer weather. Fibro can be
just as changeable as the weather! But
there ARE things we can do to help reduce its impact. There’s not much we can do about the weather
apart from avoiding the bad bits! Read
on – there are lots of goodies for you this week.

Do patients with fibromyalgia show abnormal neural responses to the observation of pain in others?
Chronic
widespread pain is a hallmark of fibromyalgia (FM). Previous neuroimaging
studies have reported that the pain neuro-matrix in patients with FM showed
augmented activation in response to actual pain. However, the effect of
observing pain in others among patients with FM remains poorly understood.

the following product
The Energy
Flow-State Programme
By Kyle Davies BSc
MPhil CPsychol
Director, Metaphysical
Health Ltd
"Essentially
this is a mind-body programme with a twist. It works at a deep emotional
and spiritual level while looking to address the root cause of chronic health
challenges. I can see how this could be helpful for Fibromyalgia –
it is not ‘gimmicky’ or offering a quick fix, it takes you through a process of
implementing practical tools and techniques based on some fresh ideas and
perspectives on health and wellbeing. The content of the programme is
unique and Kyle draws on 10 years of successfully treating CFS, ME and
Fibromyalgia using models, theory, tools and techniques he has worked with and
developed. There is a great deal of information in the programme,
and it is set out clearly and presented in different formats; which
include a workbook/manual, mp3 audio files and videos. There
is on-line support and opportunities to connect with Kyle and other
members in a forum area and members webinars - that alone can address some of
the isolation issues that go with having Fibromyalgia. Kyle also invites
members to submit questions and he records answers on videos which are stored
in the members video library.
Kyle communicates
well and succintly so is easy to follow. Having met Kyle, I know he is very
knowledgeable about the condition itself and we are grateful that people
are putting time, effort and resources into helping our community.

Studies prove most medical research is false
For several reasons, a stigma has been placed on scientific research
which has caused many people to become quite skeptical and cynical of what is
being produced and published. Much of the reluctance to embrace contemporary
research findings has stemmed from Ioannidis' 2005 article, "Why Most
Published Research Findings are False." This article has gone viral and
has been quoted by numerous websites and right-winged critics in their attempt
to discredit scientific research.

The Prescription
Charges Coalition is a group
of more than 20 organisations campaigning to end unfair prescription
charges for people with long term medical conditions
People with long-term
conditions in England are still forced to pay for the prescriptions they need
to stay well. Our recent survey of nearly 4,000
people with long-term conditions in England has found that many are severely
compromising their health as a result of not being able to afford prescription
charges. We are calling for change and need your help to
get this message heard. Read more

It has been quite an eventful week, a new Pope elected, Francis, a new name for a Pope. Red Nose Day raised a staggering £47 million plus. Somebody realised that sugar loaded drinks are bad for you. Hey, we could have told them that. Almost as bad as suger free aspartame drinks are!

like to point out to you that the information in my eNews blog is passed on to you mainly from other

Sites I refer you to are for

even be medically sound, but I merely offer them for you to peruse and make
your own judgements, accept or reject as you will. Only by reading widely
can we get an overall picture of fibromyalgia syndrome and how we can deal with
its symptoms, learn to cope with them and still have a life. Any advice or recommendation of a medical or
legal nature should always be discussed with a qualified professional.
I also include
various awareness items, benefits issues, as well as general health
