Re: Trigger Points?



The most prominent symptoms of each are...

FMS: Pain
CFS: Fatigue

Kissing cousins in many of us.

As far as trigger points, does your friend hurt? And where? A doctor
does the trigger point test, you usually don't 'point' them out to the
doctor. That's their job to see if touching in certain areas create a
painful response, not to be confused with the all-over pain felt by those
with FM. If your friend has FMS and a doctor does a trigger point test,
the doctor will know.

Knowing where to say "ouch" isn't the same thing. I don't think any of
the vitamins or minerals you're listing (or perhaps selling?) are "trigger
point" ~reducers.~
