YOU: The Owner's Manual

Diagnosing fibromyalgia is difficult, but a new test may change that.More than 10 million Americans have fibromyalgia (FM), a chronic condition with symptoms like pain, fatigue, poor sleep and memory problems. Diagnosing this health issue is difficult. There haven't been any objective diagnostic tests, and the disease isn't specific to any age, gender or ethnicity. Because of this, people with FM have historically been subject to skepticism by friends, family and the medical community. Plus, since the root cause of FM is unknown, treatment only helps temporarily calm symptoms rather than wipe out the illness. However, all of that may change with just one test. Developed by Dr. Bruce Gillis, the test identifies an abnormality in white blood cells that has been specifically found in people with FM. Tune in to hear how this test works and why it could change lives. Bonus! New Ways to Control Eczema
