Mayo Talks

Widespread pain. Fatigue. Depression. Why does the diagnosis of Fibromyalgia engender so much fear and trembling? How do we as physicians determine Fibromyalgia from the many other widespread muscle pain syndromes? Today’s selected presentation, “Fibromyalgia in a 20 Minute Office Visit” is presented by Dr. Jeffrey Thompson of the Mayo Clinic. Dr. Thompson, an award-winning educator, is board certified in physical medicine and rehabilitation as well as sports medicine. The March 2019 Mayo Clinic Principles of Pain and Palliative Care: Essential Tools for the Clinician conference will be held at the JW Marriott Desert Springs in Palm Desert, California. This annual conference targets the integration of pain and palliative services across disciplines. We invite you to network with your colleagues and Mayo Clinic faculty by registering at ce.mayo.edu. Links to the course can be found in this podcast’s description.
