    I'm a Mom

    I'm a mom and my kids were 2 & 4 when I got sick: Now they are 10 & 12. They do not know the "real" me. They don't remember how I was. I had to stop carrying my two year old around back then and that is hard for a baby girl. I could no longer hold her. I am sad that the mom they got is...

    Has anyone tried this suggestion.

    Hello, I was online reading and came across an article on the Oprah website about Treatment of Fibromyalgia. The article talks about acupuncture, diet, and psychological aspects, I found that it was interesting that the approach based on nutrition had such a high improvement rate. This theory...

    Paleo diet?

    I have been reading as much information as I can about fibro/cfs. Has anyone tried a paleo diet? It seems very hard to do. Is it worth it? Any success? :?:

    Greetings from a newbie

    Hey, all, My name is Willow. I've had a whirlwind of a year leading to a fibro diagnosis just a few weeks ago, and I'm still, er, processing. I also suffer from anxiety, depression, PTSD, and PCOS, and it's really overwhelming to have another chronic condition added to the list. Before this...

    Alternatives For Other Health Problems

    Recently my doctor went through the roof when my bloodwork came back and my cholesterol and LDL levels were high. He insisted I use a statin drug in a effort to reduce the levels. So I said only a very low dose and if my muscles start cramping I am quiting it. So I am on Simvastatin 5mg, one a...

    Flour linked to pain?

    I did an experiment this week, after my acupunctureist told me to try it. I cut all grains out of my diet this entire week (I also do not eat corn, wheat, dairy, and soy due to allergies and intolerances.) I've been going through Cymbalta withdrawal this week too (been struggling with nasty...

I haven't tried any yet- but I'm curious. I'm trying to lead a better, more natural plant based diet. I've been on...

    Naturopathic doctor claims to know what causes fibro

    I have an appointment to see the doctor. I understand that he is famous for helping people with fibromyalgia find nearly total relief from their symptoms, but he puts you on a strict diet and herb plan that you cannot stray from in order to stay well. Symptoms come back if you stray from his...
