Today, we're honored to bring you a conversation with Dale, a brave soul journeying through life with fibromyalgia.  Hailing from the UK, he candidly shares his path to diagnosis, shedding light on the sudden onset of debilitating symptoms - physical and mental exhaustion, dizziness, confusion, and chronic fatigue. Dale navigates us through his post-diagnosis life, exploring his experiences with various treatments and the healthcare system.

Imagine waking up one morning feeling utterly drained, and it doesn't go away. That's what Dale experienced in September 2019. Our conversation dives into his three-year journey toward a fibromyalgia diagnosis and how creativity became his solace amidst the storm. His passion for music and photography provided an outlet for expression and healing.
Further reflection reveals clues early in his life that likely increased his risk of developing fibromyalgia. Dale shares his strategies. It is important to hear Dale's story. Join us as we uncover Dale's journey, offering hope and validation to others facing similar trials.

When I started this podcast and YouTube Channel (   / @cqrfibromyalgia  ) —and the book (https://www.amazon.com/Conquering-You...) that came before it—I had my patients in mind. Office visits are short, but understanding complex, often misunderstood conditions like fibromyalgia takes time. That’s why I created this space: to offer education, validation, and hope. If you’ve been told fibromyalgia “isn’t real” or that it’s “all in your head,” know this—I see you. I believe you. This podcast aims to affirm your experience and explain the science behind it. Whether you live with fibromyalgia, care for someone who does, or are a healthcare professional looking to better support patients, you’ll find trusted, evidence-based insights here, drawn from my 29+ years as an MD.
