Brainstem Dysfunction Found in Fibromyalgia

Written by Anthony Hardie, 91outcomes.com 

(91outcomes.com - Oct. 17, 2013) - New medical research from Austria suggests functional changes in the brain at the brainstem level in fibromyalgia, a disease characterized by chronic widespread pain and an array of additional potential symptoms.

The brainstem regulates the central nervous system, including heart rate, breathing, sleep, digestion, pain sensation, and temperature regulation.  The brainstem includes the midbrain, medulla oblongata, and the pons.  
Fibromyalgia is a "presumptive" condition  for the purposes of VA service-connected disability claims.for veterans with Persian Gulf War service (between Aug. 2, 1990 and the present).

  1. HIV-Negative AIDS: Is it CFS, GWS, or AIDS?

    Allied NATO Government is hiding millions of infectious NON HIV AIDS cases (like mine) under the "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)" ICD-code.

    - Dr. Lorraine Day was on Joyce Riley's military show THE POWER HOUR (9/12): "...HIV-Negative AIDS cases falsely reported and treated as CFS cases may be one of the biggest cover-ups we have seen."

    - In 1992 "...Newsweek made an even more shocking announcement: …CFS patients who had the same immune system deficiencies as the NON-HIV AIDS cases..."

    - Dr. Judy Mikovits stated on In Short Order (11/12) about CFS & Myalgic Encephalopathy (ME): "…consider this as NON HIV AIDS."

    - Neenyah Ostrom's book "America's Biggest Cover-up: 50 More Things...CFS & Its Link To AIDS" cites: "Some CFS Patients May Be Non-HIV AIDS Cases."

    - NON HIV AIDS has been censored from mainstream media since 1992 (i.e., suspiciously, the same year that the *very mysterious* Gulf War Syndrome (GWS) presented).

    Will GWS, CFS or AIDS ever make any progress unless we acknowledge these horrific facts?

    My case goes up through the NIH, CDC, White House, WHO, to the UN. I testified federally in Washington-DC, and am published 16 times on 4 continents (including PEOPLE’S VOICE, FROM THE TRENCHES WORLD REPORT, PFLAG, & FUSE MAGAZINE).

    E.g., http://www.fromthetrenchesworldreport.com/the-aids-like-disease-seldom-mentioned/57623

    I hope that you will spread-the-news too (e.g., write a story, add to your e*Newsletter and/or post on Facebook/Twitter).

    In the fight for humanity,
