CURRENT PATIENT STUDY
New Fibromyalgia Clinical Trial for
Patients
The Fibromyalgia Research Team at the
University of Utah School of Medicine's
Pain Research Center is beginning a new
clinical trial on Fibromyalgia
patients. We are currently recruiting
participants for a nutrition and weight
management study.
The Fibromyalgia Research Team has been
awarded a National Institutes of Health
grant to provide nutrition and coping
education for symptom and weight
management for overweight or obese
Fibromyalgia patients. We are
recruiting participants who have been
diagnosed with Fibromyalgia syndrome,
are between the ages of 21 and 65, and
have a Body Mass Index of at least 25.
Eligible patients will undergo pre and
post treatment evaluations and will
receive 12 weeks of treatment at the
University of Utah Pain Research
Center. The treatment will be in a
group format and will be provided at no
cost.
If
you have any questions or would like
additional information about this study
please do not hesitate to contact Mark
Herrera at (801) 585-7692.
