Young v. Hickory Business Furniture3/21/2000
f this case, that plaintiff offered evidence which indicates a "reasonable scientific probability" that plaintiff's present condition is causally related to her at-work injury. Nothing in this record indicates that Dr. Payne's theory of a causal relationship between trauma and fibromyalgia is widely accepted in the medical profession, nor have the necessary studies been done to demonstrate such a connection. I believe the Commission erred in basing its award on unsupported "could or might" causation testimony, and I would vote to reverse its opinion and award. Therefore, I respectfully dissent from the opinion of the majority which affirms that award.
