So Why am I doing this?

Well, for continuing physiotherapy registration I need to do a certain number of hours per year of ongoing study, and a certain component of this can be in the form of self directed study.
This is my self directed study.

2. Fibromyalgia
   
   • Chronic Fatigue
   • Night Pain
3. Sciatica

Formating

https://stackedit.io/editor
http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/dingus
- minus then space makes bullets
- number then dot makes numbered lists
- // makes a comment that gets deleted out - this not done by stackedit, I do this manually later with search and replace somehow.
- using freemind to lay this out, then https://stackedit.io/ to format. Copy and paste then remove all instances of 4 spaces.
- asterisk before and after for italics, 2 for bold
