10059661 tn?1407565170 Thought you might appreciate the info in this link. It is an interview with a good thyroid doctor. I think you will really like to know that, "If you remember it was a long time before the medical profession admitted that there were two new diseases to appear in the world that were not there before. Chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia were non-existent before 1980. This is seven years after the 1973 consensus meeting. So where did these two new diseases come from?

Avatar f tn I suffer deep muscle pain in my left leg. First the pain began behind the knee and calf muscle now it's my thigh. It was so bad last night I screamed from the pain and my daughter wanted to call 911. It lasted a longer time it was like a huge charley horse in my thigh. And after walking about it finally stopped but was still sore. Today it isn't like that intense pain but still hurts. I am a type II diabetic who works at exercising and my daughter thinks that maybe I over did it.
Avatar f tn I also have hypothyroidism, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, DDD, DJD, TMJ, IBS, and on and on. All of this but IBS and TMJ came after your symptoms and I also got a rash that lasted for almost a year at the same time, with multiple UTI's, and sinusitis. Right after this I started becoming allergic to several meds. too. PS. I never had any chest pains though.
Avatar n tn fibromyalgia is a chronic condition causing pain, stiffness,tenderness on muscles, tendons and joints. There appears to be a diffuse disturbance in pain perception in fibromyalgia patients. Tattooing can elicit unknown responses in these patients because about half of them are known to have allergies. It may trigger muscular pains and other symptoms in these overtly sensitive individuals.

Avatar m tn Following a good organic diet for borth migraine and fibromyalgia helps and avoiding stress. I have blackout shades in my home and NO FLOURESCENT BULBS!!! Warm baths are great. I've been watching some research at Stanford and hoping for success there. It's non narcotic and inexpensive. You can catch a youtube film about it by looking up stanford fibromyalgia. Good luck.
Avatar n tn Fibromyalgia pain is muscle pain and the most important therapy for muscle pain is regular, gentle and low-impact exercise. It keeps muscles conditioned and healthy and decreases the amount of discomfort. It is very important to try low-stress exercises such as walking, swimming, water aerobics, and biking rather than straining exercises such as weight training. Heavy exercises worsen the symptoms.

Avatar f tn she may have heard this in relation to a medication used to treat high uric acid levels in fibromyalgia patients and is said to reduce pain. The name of the drug is allopurinol. Here is an article you can copy and paste about it https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34715996/. Here is a quote about how uric acid affects those with fibro.
Avatar f tn He said that there is really nothing that you can do about it besides go to physical therepy and exercise, and take all my vitamins. But one thing I couldn't get him to understand is that I'm not even able to hardley get up out of the bed, much less evercise. You just cant get these doctors to understand anything, and get this he told me that there is no medicine at all that would help.
573297 tn?1304709140 Does anyone have both dx and yet their pdoc doesn't believe them? I got diagnosed like 8 years ago I think (kind of don't remember...the exact time) but now this year I get dx of bipolar and my pdoc doesn't believe I have fibromyalgia...I know I have the pain....and it feels like it is coming back, and if so this is the fourth flare up (one lasting two years, one lasting 6 months to a year, one was three months because of the depo-provera shot) what do I do to get taken seriously?

Some of my symptoms include: severe fatigue, severe pain and muscle soarness, headache, flu - like feeling all the time.
Avatar n tn you will discover thousands of articles that do suspect a link between the symptoms of fibromyalgia and hormones. Men have hormones too (!) and so of course they could suffer imbalances and symptoms. Fibromyalgia IS a blanket term that is used to describe many problems, including symptoms such as keepthefaith and salter are experiencing. It is believed that it is a central nervous disorder but no one really knows for sure yet. Some doctors don't even believe in it.

675329 tn?1297288378 You should have various physical therapies prescribed for you like heat, massage, gentle exercise. Meditative and stretching treatments are helpful like yoga and tai quan do (sp?) For your state of mind nothing is ususally better than regular visits with a trained psychologist or psychaitrist who specializes in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Then there's the use of carefully selected vitamins and supplements, diet and regular, gentle exercise.

Avatar n tn Instead medications in the class of skeletal muscle relaxants, SNRI anti-depressants, Trazodone, Lyrica and Savella are the most common ones prescribed for fibromyalgia. And yes, the SNRIs are pain relievers. I suffer from both fibromyalgia and severe migraines. My pain medications for my migraines do nothing for my fibromyalgia pain. So you could look into it. Good luck.
