Conquering Your Fibromyalgia Podcast Ep. 26 Fibromyalgia and ADHD: Part 2
Text Dr. Lenz any feedback or questions
In this week's episode, we continue the conversation on ADHD. Many with ADHD learn what they can't do or struggle to do so they stop trying. Many with ADHD feel they have never come near to meeting their intellectual potential. Implementing effective lifestyle changes consistently is much more of a challenge for those with ADHD than those without. This can lead over time to a sense of hopelessness. Treatment of ADHD is the most effectively treated psychiatric condition and also has been shown to reduce fibromyalgia symptoms in those with comorbid ADHD.
Dr. Lenz is an internist, pediatrician, lifestyle medicine physician, and clinical lipidologist with an interest in helping those with fibromyalgia and related problems go beyond just learning to live with to even reversing fibromyalgia. He is also the author of the book, "Conquering Your Fibromyalgia: Real Answers and Real Solutions for Real Pain. " It is also available on audiobook with Dr. Lenz as the narrator. You can also go to Conquerinyourfibromyalgia.com to read some blogs that Dr. Lenz has done on fibromyalgia.

Fibromyalgia 101. A list of fibromyalgia podcast episodes that are great if you are new and don't know where to start.
When I started this podcast—and the book that came before it—I had my patients in mind. Office visits are short, but understanding complex, often misunderstood conditions like fibromyalgia takes time. That’s why I created this space: to offer education, validation, and hope. If you’ve been told fibromyalgia “isn’t real” or that it’s “all in your head,” know this—I see you. I believe you. You’re not alone. This podcast aims to affirm your experience and explain the science behind it. Whether you live with fibromyalgia, care for someone who does, or are a healthcare professional looking to better support patients, you’ll find trusted, evidence-based insights here, drawn from my 28+ years as an MD.
Please remember to talk with your doctor about your symptoms and care. This content doesn’t replace personal medical advice.*
