From the article:

Yes!! Finally a physical finding to say that fibromyalgia is a disease that’s not psychosomatic.

picture of a brain scan of someone with fibromyalgia.  That scan showed an area down the center of the brain and across the top of the frontal cortex in a bright blue.  It was explained that this area of the brain had a very low blood supply.  It was also explained that this was the area of the brain that was directly connected to pain processing and emotional responses to pain.  No wonder the brain doesn’t know when to shut off its pain sensors, it’s not nourished. The scan that detects these changes in brain function is called a photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) scan. It’s nice to know that brain scans detect fibromyalgia.  Here is the link to this show http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/fibromyalgia-real-illness-pt-1#cmpid_FB_LINK.  It’s in two parts and the second part is listed below this video.

I know that some of the people that read my blog and read the title of this post is going to say that I have gone over to the “dark side”.. believing that FM is not a REAL DISEASE.

There are others who will think that I have finally came to my senses and believe that FM is not a REAL DISEASE …

Sorry, I have not changed my opinion that FM is a real disease.. and I hope that this article will make some more converts that FM is a REAL DISEASE …
