Private Fibromyalgia clinics are starting to pop up in a number of areas in the UK, London, Oxford and Bristol to name a few.
They specialise in treating Fibromyalgia, using evidence based medicine, based on the latest scientific research and years of clinical experience.
There is an NHS clinic at Guy’s and St. Thomas Hospital in London, Bath and patients and you can find out about help and support on the Fibromyalgia NHS Choice website.
All the clinics treat patients who have Fibromyalgia, ME or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
Dr. Muhammad Yunus, a leading Fibromyalgia who has been a researcher for decades was amongst the group of GP’s who stated that Fibromyalgaiwas ‘REAL. He also believes that Myofascial Pain Syndrome is present in roughly 5% of his Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome patients.
Many GP’s would consider the link between all of these conditions is that they all show central sensitization (CS) a hypersensitive central nervous system that produces sensitivity throughout the body.
