Hi Kyle,
Check my site - I was diagnosed with fibro in 1996. Check under Publications
and read article I wrote.
A "trigger point" exam is done by a rheumatologist. A physiatrist also can
determine if one fits the fibro profile. One must have 11-13 active trigger
points (there are 18 in total). I had all 18 active at time of examination and
diagnosis by my rehab doc. Oh joy. Magnesium helps a great deal with fibro
crap.
Cheers!
Carla
