    Alkaline Diet... It Works!

    I don't have a lot of time, but I have been wanting to post this for a long time, well as long as I have joined the forum and saw the Alternative Medicines/Therapies topic. For several months after I was diagnosed with Fibro. I completely relied on the pills I was given by my doctor. And of...

    Vitamin success stories

    I know that doctors won't prescribe vitamins, but that's because they don't research or study them. It isn't in their profession to do so, because they do not study nutrition. But loads of research since the late 1800's has proven that vitamin and nutrient deficiencies along with too much...

    Extreme pain in hands & feet?

    Hello, I am relatively newly diagnosed with fibro (3 months ago). For me it seems like I've been struggling with the pain and degeneration for more than 6 years. My father's name for it is "the creeping crud." I wonder if others have the same trouble I do with the pain in your hands and feet...

    Long term rash worse with exercise

    I don't know if this is related to the fibro or not, but I figured it's worth asking here about it. I've had a rash that covers the top half of each arm since last November. It isn't itchy, it's just a bunch of tiny red hives. It comes and goes. Sometimes it flares very noticeably, other times...

    Magnesium Malate and B12

    My wonderful new doc has been great working with me to find new tools to dampen the fibro fire. In addition to the elimination diet (which has been eye-opening), she had me begin taking magnesium malate a month ago as a trial to see if it would work for me. I am happy to report that I have been...

    Elimination Diet?

    My new doc who is a fibro guru suggested that I begin an elimination diet to see if I can identify what foods may be making symptoms worse. Essentially you eliminate all foods which are typical allergens like nuts, soy, wheat, corn, sugar, dairy, etc. for 4 weeks and then slowly begin adding...

    Juice diets - has anyone tried?

    I did a juice diet years ago (pre-fibro) and it felt great but was very had work to keep up and pretty expensive to buy enough fresh organic vegetables. I was thinking about doing it again. Has anyone tried it with fibro? I'm afraid that the initial fatigue might be to much for me to handle. I...
