    Spring hurts

    Spring is a tough time because I'm very sensitive to weather. The barometric pressure changes constantly, the wind is rather constant and extreme, storm systems pass through regularly, and things are beginning to bloom. I'm already feeling loopy from the weather, and it's tough when health...

    Here is my story!

    I am new to the forum and like what I have read so far. I am in a major flare since February (2014) due to a series of stressful events. Within 18 months my husband suffered a heart attack (had 2 stents placed) and also underwent treatment for prostate cancer. (He is doing well currently)...

    Why do I feel so bad all the time? Could I have fibro?

    Hi all. I am new here and basically looking for a sounding board. I don't know what to ask/tell my doctors, or what kind of doctor I should possibly be seeing so I guess I'm looking for guidance in those areas. I really feel like there is possibly something wrong with my health. I cringe...

    Hi from Simcoe County Ontario

    I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia about 4 or 5 years ago. I find it really difficult to determine what information and practices are valid and effective. This includes information, advice and prescriptions from medical practitioners. I do have severe degenerative disc disease in my neck, which...

    Western Medicine not effective for Chronic Issues

    I am starting to believe that western medicine is not effective for dealing with chronic issues. While I value western medicine for address acute issues very effectively.

    Do you always keep fibro and other health issues to yourself?

    Today I was thinking about a question I hear almost on a daily basis: How are you? I have learnt to kinda dislike this question over the years, because most of the people who ask you this don't really want to know how you really are, but in order to remain civil and polite they do so.

    Gluten and the staff of life

    It’s doubtful that the biblical staff of life exists any longer. In the 1960s and 70s, genetic engineering transformed wheat and other grains into poorly nutritional but more profitable products. Engineered grains have challenged physiology and general health. The culprit appears to be glutens...

    What would you say?

    Normally when people I work with greet me in the mornings and ask how are you doing, I will just smile and say fine and I hope you are. Then there are those that I work with that I can call my friends and know what is going on with my health for the last several months who ask me the same thing...
