Help for Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Symptoms
Fibromyalgia affects 3.7 million Americans and is characterized by musculoskeletal aches and pains, soft tissue tenderness, general fatigue and sleep disturbances. People with Fibromyalgia experience a variety of symptoms of varying intensities that come and go over time.
Specifically, those affected must deal with all-encompassing exhaustion, deep muscular aches, shooting pains, numbness, interrupted sleep, possible impaired memory, depression and more. Many times these symptoms interfere with the simplest of day-to-day activities.
Women are affected more often then men, but Fibromyalgia can strike adults and children regardless of sex, age or race. This chronic pain illness not only impacts the patient and their family, but their employer, friends and society as a whole.
Fortunately, Dr. Neal Fanelli and his team of trained providers at Allegheny Medical have worked together to create the "Fibromyalgia Flow" care plan. This treatment protocol is comprised of three main components: discovery through lab tests, an examination and a patient's medical history; restoration through therapy, rehabilitation exercise and hormonal imbalance correction; and maintainence through exercise, nutrition and stress reduction.
Additionally, Allegheny Medical offers ongoing support through their Fibromyalgia Support Group, which meets on a monthly basis. The purpose of the group is to provide informative and encouraging information as well as the latest breakthroughs associated with this difficult condition. Through the group, participants can receive support from those who understand the unique challenges that fibromyalgia sufferers face.
If you suffer from Fibromyalgia or related symptoms, schedule your complimentary consultation today by calling 412-494-4554. If you would like to register to attend the Fibromyalgia Support Group meetings, please call 412-494-4550. Allegheny Medical looks forward to helping you experience reduced pain, greater range of motion and overall better health through their personalized Fibromyalgia treatment plans.
