522415 tn?1242937755 We had a group meeting last year and the president of the UK Fibromyalgia group came along and told us she was now symptom free! But this is a diet that you will have to stick to for life. As your health improves you maybe able to slacken it a bit.

209591 tn?1267414714 After informing him of my fear of hospitals, he put me on Levsin Sublingually and a liquid diet. For the first few days after the script, I was still unable to keep liquids down, nor the Jello I would eat. My blood pressure also sky rocketed and has yet decreased, staying above 140/95 sometimes as high as 160/100 with a pulse of 123. I have also lost a total of 9 pounds since November 27th.
Avatar f tn I was recently told by someone that works with fibromyalgia patients that a gluten free diet could lessen my symptoms. Just trying to figure out what has or not has gluten has been confusing and a bit discouraging. But I am willing to try it if it works. Has anyone tried it? What were your results?
Avatar f tn Thank you so much for this link. I was diagnosed in 2000 with Fibromyalgia but suffered many years before being diagnosed. I was diagnosed with PTSD in 2003. I always thought the two were connected. The constant vigilance, insomnia, and muscle tension since I was about five has surely caused this condition. It was encouraging to see that studies are proving what I always suspected about why I have this debilitating condition.
Avatar f tn I saw a nutricianist who also is diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. She recommends removing all simple carbs from the diet ie. sugar, wheat, white rice, potatoes etc (and dried fruits to begin with). You can eat other complex carbs eg. oats, rye, quinoa, millet etc etc. (I did find out I have a gluten intolerance, which may/may not be relevant to you and I also have a dairy intolerance, but usually that is not the case).
976897 tn?1379167602 This is thought to be for making us more intelligent to find more food. So, how does the diet work. I will be trying the 5-2 diet, 5 days normal eating, 2 days diet. This has worked in many trials, lowing cholesterol, blood pressure, growth factors. It puts the cells into high repair mode and makes your body more youthful, not in looks, but in reaction times etc. Your major organs become more healthy. It also causes lots of body fat to be consumed.
Avatar f tn Iam a mother with 2 young children and I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia 4 years ago. Since then I have been suffering with extreme pain that never lets up. I am curious if anyone else has ideas on which medicines work better for pain. I also suffer from depression and anxiety issues. I also have difficulty sleeping, I feel so alone, because neither my family or friends understand my problems. They think I do not really have medical problems. I appreciate if anyone replies!
Avatar n tn I've been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. I've tried all of the meds they are currently prescribing for this. Has anyone tried alternative treatment for this? If so, did it work for you?

Avatar m tn Very uncomfortable feeling, worse when I first wake up from sleep, but sometimes also all day long. Am I suffering from what is called fibromyalgia, does hepB cause this disease. I've already read that there are lots of other diseases that are caused by this terrible chronic illness.
Avatar f tn Thanks for this. I'm in the UK, and we don't really have a problem with Lyme Disease as far as I know, but I'm seeing my GP at the end of the weeks so I'll ask him if I've been checked for it (I have had about a leg full of blood taken over the months...) and if it is active in this region.

5505362 tn?1368959664 Hi I'm new here from the UK and suffer from Multiple sclerosis &Fibromyalgia & I have also have pain in hip which radiates from right thigh around the back which worsens with standing,eases a little with rest. My problem is with the Doctors who are obsessed with diagnosing everything on my current diseases, which I have to say is weeing me off to say the least.
Avatar f tn I never had pains as strong as yours but I think the real cause to Fibromyalgia is depression and bad diet. (the only 2 pilsl doctros can prescribe are antidepressants and they dont really work because you cant fix depression just with antidepressants) Do you know that women are 9 times more likely to be diagnosed with Fibromyalgia? Try exercising regularly and have a vegetable based diet. Paranoia, anxiety all exacerbate the symptoms of fibromyalgia. Try doing breathing exercises.
Avatar f tn What are the common symptoms of fibromyalgia of this illness? What kind of pain do we suffer from it?Which part of the body being attacked?

Avatar m tn I have been told for 3 years I have Fibromyalgia along with osteoarthritis in many areas; osteoporosis (I have lost 2 and l/2 inches in 3 years; fracture mode; every medicine I had been put on has been problems and I have been taken off all for Fibromyalgia, osteoporosis, and arthritis. Now, my right eye is getting fuzzy, not every day, but more days all the time. My doctor has said although I need back surgery, be careful doing that because it will possibly make your fibromyalgia worse.
