Fibromyalgia - Out of The Dark Tunnel
Journal Title: Enliven: Journal of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 6
Abstract
My name is Valerie Lumley, recovered fibromyalgic and author of “Curing Chronic Fibromyalgia – Choosing What Works.” The intension of my book first is to help fibromyalgia (FMS) sufferers regain their health, and secondly, create a paradigm shift in the way FMS is viewed. Contrary to popular belief, FMS is curable. Curing this condition led me to discover that FMS is a syndrome caused by a chronic brainstem injury, which over time distorts the signals from the brain into the body and back again that regulate all biological functions, and causes the entire central nervous system to become hyperactive and hypersensitive at the same time. This state leads to all symptoms of FMS, both common and uncommon. All stress, mild or overwhelming, exacerbates this condition.
