Your pain is real. This book explains, with rigorous neuroscience, why fibromyalgia hurts when nothing structural is wrong.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor years you have been told that your bloodwork is clean, your imaging is unremarkable, and your symptoms are out of proportion to anything a doctor can see. You have been offered antidepressants, lectured about exercise, and quietly suspected of exaggerating. None of that is an explanation. This book is.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten for adults living with fibromyalgia who are exhausted by books that skip past the science and rush into coping tips, \u003ci\u003eThe Fibromyalgia Paradox\u003c\/i\u003e is the definitive neuroscience-grounded account of what is actually happening inside a sensitised nervous system. Independent researcher R. V.
