Brain function is physical.

| The talk here about fibromyalgia reminds me of when I got diagnosed
| with depressio years back. Physical pain was one of the symptoms of
| my depression.
|
| And then I read on here that depression is one of the symptoms of
| fibromyalgia.

| I wonder if fatigue, depression, and fibromyalgia are really all part
| of the same syndrome. Whether it's in the mind or the body or both
| doesn't really matter. The mind is in the brain and the brain is
| part of the body, so it's all connected anyway. Studies show that a
| good attitude improves cancer survival rates, and that depressed
| people catch more viruses, so even if fibromyalgia turns out to have
| a non-physical cause, that doesn't mean it's not a real problem.
