Last week I must have given you information overload! This week I am trying to keep things more minimal. Not only for your sake but mine. I don't want to strain my eyes by too much computer use as a growtth has been discovered behind the lens of my left eye and I have an emergency appointment at the eye clinic at Horsham Hospital at 9.15 on Monday morning.

There is no perfect treatment for pain and sleeplessness. It all depends on your particular case -- the kind of pain you have and the other medications you take, for instance.
The first step for anyone with sleep problems is to improve their sleep habits. This helps set the stage for a good night's rest.
You might also benefit from medication.

N.B. I would like to point out to you that the information in my eNews blog is passed on to you mainly from other sources. Links are given to the original articles. I take no responsibility for their accuracy but freely give them publicity if I think they might be of interest to my readership. Sites I refer you to are for information only. They might conflict in their opinions, they might not 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 considerations. Anyone wishing to reproduce any of the included items in printed form should seek permission from the originators.
