How Common is Fibromyalgia, 10 Million Diagnosed in U.S., Chronic Pain a Bigger Problem
How Common is Fibromyalgia, 10 Million Diagnosed in U.S., Chronic Pain a Bigger Problem: In this segment of the interview of Dr. Greg Fors, an expert on Fibromyaglia pain and natural remedies, and the subject is how common is the condition and what is being done about those who are diagnosed.
Dr. Fors says 10 million people in the United States have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and upwards of 90 million more suffer from chronic pain. Since Fibromyalgia is not a disease but a syndrome, the official diagnosis is a rather fluid definition.
