Groover Clinic Holistic Fibromyalgia Treatment Program Progress Evaluation
Your First Groover Clinic Holistic Fibromyalgia Treatment Program Progress Evaluation is performed after twelve treatment visits (3 - 6 weeks) to asses improvements in your body function, pain, and fatigue, and to determine the treatment needs and the structure of the next phase of your Fibromyalgia care.
Progress Evaluation Forms Completed
The same packet of intake forms given to you before your Initial Fibromyalgia Evaluation are again completed by you and returned before the time of your Holistic Fibromyalgia Treatment Program Progress Evaluation. Your Fibromyalgia History Form has been modified to record changes in your recent history such as your current medication usage, work, hobbies, exercise, etc. These forms include: Symptomatology (symptoms) Consultation Form, Progress Evaluation History Form, Metabolic (body chemistry) Assessment Form, Brain Neurotransmitter Assessment Form, Rand 36 measure of health-related quality of life survey, Neck Pain Disability Questionnaire, Oswestry Chronic Lower Back Pain Questionnaire, and Various administrative forms.
Symptoms and Current History Reviewed
During your Holistic Fibromyalgia Treatment Program Progress Evaluation, your symptomatology and history forms are reviewed and changes in your symptoms and current medical and social history are noted. Most of our patients are pleased to find they have little or no symptoms to report, have stopped or greatly reduced their medication usage, and are enjoying family, work and recreation activities that were not previously possible.
Questionnaires and Assessment Forms Compared
Your current questionnaires and assessment forms have been graded and compared with those completed during your Initial Fibromyalgia Evaluation. All abnormal examination findings from your Initial Fibromyalgia Evaluation are reevaluated. At this time, you should expect to see generous improvements in your body functioning, pain, fatigue and your health.
Reexaminations Completed
Tests that were positive during your first Progress Evaluation are repeated, the results of your tests and your Progress Evaluation paperwork are compared with previous evaluations, and your current progress is charted as your Total Body Function Score.
Intensive Care or Functional Care?
Your Holistic Fibromyalgia Treatment Program Progress Evaluation provides information about the status of your health, the extent of your recovery, the effectiveness of your Holistic Fibromyalgia Treatment Program, and the type of care you will require next. Depending upon the success you have achieved so far, you may continue with your intensive care or transition from intensive care to functional care.
