Millions of Americans suffer from some type of pain every day. I know many of you reading this right now have pain. You have been to several types of health care providers without success. I'm sure you are tired, frustrated, and at your wits' end.

For the next few weeks, I will be focusing on chronic pain---sometimes called Fibromyalgia. Make no mistake---pain IS real, and there are many reasons why you may be suffering.

I believe that some pains can be brought on by emotional stressors or triggers. Other factors involved can go back all the way to your childhood. Were you a bottle or breastfed baby? There is a difference.

I have learned a lot about pain just by listening to my patients over the years. Tomorrow I'm going to tell you of the leading causes of pain and fibromyalgia.
