What Are Tender Points?
Eighteen Tender Points (Blue Markers) have been used as a diagnostic tool for Fibromyalgia for a number of years.
No one had explained what they are or why they are in certain locations.
I discovered that Tender Points are proximate to major branching of the arteries. Serous / Lymphatic Fluid flows out of the Arterial Capillaries correctly, enters the body tissue correctly, but is too thick to leave through the Lymphatic Capillaries. This congestion causes severe pain at those locations.
There are 42 major branch points of the arteries. If my discoveries were to be proven correct, there would be 24 more, previously unnoticed, Tender Points; they would be at the additional locations where arteries branch.
Twenty four additional Tender Points are at the predicted locations and are readily detectable. (Green Markers).
An individual with Fibromyalgia, or their physician, can verify it for themselves.
"New opinions are always suspected, and usually opposed,
without any other reason but because
they are not already common."
