Hello again
Here we are, earlier than
usual this week, as promised. There’s
not quite so much this week as time was limited and the same may be true next
week, but I will do my best to produce something for you, even if a little
limited.

Chronic Pain Management: Improve Your Sleep
Sleep plays a crucial role in the daily experience
of people with chronic pain.
Of course, research
(and probably your own experience) has demonstrated that pain can make it
harder to fall asleep and stay asleep. In a study
involving people with fibromyalgia, Dr. Nancy Hamilton and her colleagues reported
a complex set of findings in which poor sleep had a cumulative effect on
negative emotions and
interfered with emotional recovery on days in which the person experienced a
high number of stressful, negative events. In a study
conducted by Felix Naughton and his colleagues,
poor sleep quality tended to make people feel more depressed and tended to make their
pain feel worse.

like to actually go to sleep, thank you.

Shoo Pain, Don't
Bother Me - Top 10 Nutrients to Take Back Your Life
What
do people who live with chronic musculoskeletal discomfort want most? Freedom.
Many people experience all-over aching and stiffness on waking in the morning, which may continue throughout the day with a variety of stabbing, burning or throbbing sensations, and unfortunately does not end at night but rather may even intensify, preventing them from getting a good night’s sleep.
That’s why Rich Carson, founder of ProHealth, Inc., set out to develop an all-natural product that would provide complete muscle, tissue, and joint support. The result was Fibro Freedom.™

Introduction
We strive to educate society that chronic pain may be a life-long problem. Our goal is to raise public and professional awareness for those who are unfamiliar with chronic pain about the factors that often result in having chronic pain and the need for ongoing medical care and research for new methods/medications for the treatment of chronic pain.

In part 1 of this article,
the author discussed the technical profile of class IV laser therapy and
introduced ideas for incorporating this technology into the chiropractic
clinic. In part 2, clinical applications for class IV laser therapy will be
discussed along with their proposed mechanisms of action. Two case studies will
be presented.

Hi, I am Debbie's husband, Dwain.
Some of you have asked how I, as the spouse of a person with Fibro copes with it all. I think its because I am very patient with regard to my wife. I am also the type of person who keeps comments to myself, MOST of the time. I am human too so I will vent but I usually control it. The only piece of advice my father-in-law gave me the day we were married was "make no assumptions." That has been a valuable piece of advice. Another thing about me is that I am not judgemental about what other people do, say, like, or, whatever. Again this is most of the time. I think that all these things together help me deal with my wife's situation.

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
