Video / DVD
For a concise summary of the Guaifenesin protocol, the
Fibromyalgia Treatment Center have produced a video of Dr St. Amand and Claudia
Craig Marek lecturing on the Guaifenesin Protocol. It is especially useful as an
overview if you are very brainfogged. It is also a very useful resource to
explain Dr St. Amand's theory of FMS and how guaifenesin works to doctors or
relatives. Also available as a DVD.
The video is available from www.fibromyalgiatreatment.com
(cheques in $US) or by credit card from www.fibroconnection.com.
