By popular demand, The Medical Disruptor is back with one of the most requested episodes!

In this powerful encore, Dr. E dives into why fibromyalgia shouldn’t be seen as a final diagnosis—but rather as a starting point for uncovering the real root causes of chronic pain, fatigue, and brain fog.

Often dismissed as an "invisible illness," fibromyalgia leaves too many patients feeling unheard, ignored, and stuck in the cycle of treatments that only mask symptoms.

But Dr. E is here to challenge that.

In this episode, she exposes the shortcomings of conventional medicine’s approach and reveals the often-overlooked triggers behind chronic pain and fatigue—like gut imbalances, food sensitivities, mold exposure, and hidden infections like Lyme disease.

Dr. E shares how functional medicine empowers you to ask better questions, find real answers, and finally take back control of your health.

If you’ve been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, suspect it might explain your symptoms, or are supporting someone on this journey—this episode is for you.

Don’t miss this chance to see what’s really possible for your health.
