The Fibromyalgia Summit is not one of those week-long, drag it out, a couple of speakers a day online summits. This is a summit on speed: 31 presentations over three days in May (May 12th-May 14th). Blink and it’ll pass you by. That would be shame, though, because Ruschelle Khanna has put together an eclectic mix of speakers.

The rules of the online summit game are that, once registered, you can watch the presentations for free on the day they are presented. If you want to get complete access to them and the materials associated with them you have buy the package, though :(.

The good news is that the package, particularly right now, is a good price – $69 (instead of $97). Get that and you can download all the presentations and the materials associated with them.

Check out some of the thirty plus presenters. I’ll be covering them day by day as the Summit proceeds

I’m not aware of Dr. Finkelstein’s work but a methodical, step by step approach sounds like a good recipe for complex diseases like FM and chronic fatigue syndrome.

Depke will speak on inflammation, pain, weight gain and fatigue.
