Fibromyalgia?

Many times people have all the symptoms of fibromyalgia but still may not have fibromyalgia.  Read this clinical case history from one of our many patients and decide for yourself whether or not they had fibromyalgia?

“First of all, I must admit I was skeptical about going to a chiropractor.  A year of deep muscle massages every 10 days, plus another 6 weeks of physical therapy, two to three times per week had given me very little relief.  A friend at work suggested I try a chiropractor.  A couple of weeks after that, I saw Dr. V’s infomercial and decided to come in.  In less than three weeks of treatment, I’m feeling much, much better.  The pain in my neck, shoulders, spine, hips, and tailbone was constant with occasional intense muscle spasms that were excruciating.  I was so weak and fatigued all the time, and I couldn’t work a full day. Now, I am virtually pain free.  I still have a bit of morning stiffness, but it passes.  My posture is better and I feel more alert and less tired.”                                                                               – Harold A.

Oddly enough, even though he had many symptoms associated with fibromyalgia:

Muscle pain,

Overall body aches,

Fatigue

Weakness,

Insomnia, etc.

He did not have fibromyalgia.  His examination did not reveal the discrete tender points in enough places to warrant that particular diagnosis.
