Yesterday I watched this presentation by David Butler on YouTube.  It was quite long,nearly an hour but it was very interesting and I found it quite inspiring. 

David Butler is an Australian pain specialist and the presentation was for the Australian arthritis society.

If you are interested in this sort of thing and watch it, I would love th hear your views.

    My cousin was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and, upon learning it was caused by perception of pain, managed somehow to bring it under control.  It had been so bad she even remodelled her bathroom to replace tub with a shower as she had trouble getting in and out of tub.  She seems fine now!
