    Anti-inflammatory foods

    I have been adding anti-inflammatory foods to my diet to help in a natural way in dealing with the pain and swollen joints and feet. When I take raw pineapple, and eat only that for the whole day, it usually seems to help with the inflammation . I have also tried cherry juice, or just eating...

    What kind of specialist?

    My family doctor diagnosed me a couple years ago and has me on Cymbalta for pain. The pain has gotten much worse even though my life, activity, diet hasn't changed much. I take either ibuprofen or naproxen at the max dose every day just to function. My dr gave me Ultram but will only give me 10...

    Dietary Helpers/Restrictions

    I just want to know what works with some people's diet. My boyfriend with Fibro is trying dairy free, but it seems to be making him worse in some ways. We did find out that he is probably lactose intolerant, so that was the good side to it. My question is what diets do YOU do or have tried?;-)...

    Adding Seaweed to your Diet for Fibro

    I have to say, when I first tried seaweed I nearly gagged. I realized that it is very important, all you have to do is do a search for radiation poisoning and seaweed and read the extensive studies on it's positive effects on radiation poisoning. I bought my first package over a year ago...

    Anti-Inflammation Diet

    Has anyone tried an "Anti-Inflammation Diet" for help with their fibromyalgia and/or arthritis/other issues? I'm looking at this as an option but wow, it'll be such a huge, radical change for me. The biggest problem is that I don't have a lot of freezer space (or even a lot of fridge space) as I...

    Migraine Headaches & Fibromyalgia

    I think for anyone who has fibro, the severe headaches can be scarier than the muscle pain. Often the medications used for migraine headaches has limited success and are difficult to take when one gets nausea with the headache. Laying in a dark room with cold compresses sometimes helps to...

    Alterative Methods For Healing

    Since I have had Fibromyalgia, I spend lots of money trying to find an answer to how to manage the condition. I was told you need a team of doctors. So I had my family doctor and neurologist, a rheumatologist and a therapist. But I still felt weak and depressed, and alone in this battle. When I...

    Fibromyalgia and leg pain

    I was diagnosed with Fibro in 1994. Since then, I had 2 remissions, which lasted a short time. The leg pain can be so unbearable during the winter months, that I can hardly walk around the house. Prior to getting neuropathy (nerve damage) in my legs and feet, I walked 3 short walks a day...
