Workers' Compensation — depression and fibromyalgia — not occupational diseases

The decision of the Court of Appeals in this case is reversed for the reasons stated in the dissenting opinion in the Court of Appeals that the evidence and the Industrial Commission's findings do not support the Commission's conclusions that plaintiff's employment exposed her to a greater risk of contracting depression and fibromyalgia than the public generally and that her depression and fibromyalgia are compensable occupational diseases.

PER CURIAM.

For the reasons stated in the dissenting opinion, we reverse the decision of the Court of Appeals.

REVERSED.
