    Possible Misdiagnosis or Additional Disorder

    I just was wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience or any input. I was experiencing increasing pain symptoms and I went to a doctor (my doctor did not have appointments). He did some blood work and later that week my PCP diagnosed me with fibromyalgia. I was frustrated that the...

    Foods that fight pain

    I have been reading today and came across a few articles about foods that can help you fight pain. I know of dark green veggies like brussel sprouts and broccoli that help with inflamation and pain but are there any others associated with pain relief?

    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...

    Acetylcholine and Brain fog.

    I will probably discuss this elsewhere in the future, but this is just a testing ground for my theory at the moment, to see what others think.
