627818 tn?1271777026 I don't know how many of you get the National MS Society newsletter online but yesterday's version had some interesting articles in it. There is some good research and clinical trials going on, so I thought that was encouraging! I'm sure you can go to the NMSS website - it is one those org ending sites, and sign up if you don't already receive it.
773755 tn?1328119777 I was just reading a newsletter from another health site and it indicated some things that can affect fibromyalgia. MSG is definitely on the list as is aspartame.
649848 tn?1534633700 On my profile page, I have checked the box to receive the MH newsletter, but I don't get it. I understand that there was a good video about thyroid in a recent newsletter and would like to find it. Can anyone tell me why I might not get the newsletter, even though I have that box checked? I know of, at least, one other person not getting it, as well. I'm getting other notifications, like I should.
Avatar f tn I'm frustrated! I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia many years ago, but think it's something else. Eyesight problems, hearing problems, kidney problems, back pain, joint pain, abdominal pain and swelling, and just about every symptom of MS. Negative ANA. Just need someone to talk to! Any advice/support is greatly appreciated!!
139792 tn?1498585650 It is sent out to members who elect to receive the newsletter. To change that preference, just go to your profile page and click the "account settings" link. That's where you can opt in or opt out of various email notifications from MedHelp, including the newsletter. Now we have clear ideas of other features of MH Thanks.
572651 tn?1530999357 I thought you might be interested in reading some of the issues facing your counterparts in the UK. I get their e-newsletter for their incontinence news, but always find other interesting articles to read. Their website is www.nursingtimes.net.
505916 tn?1248792942 We typically only discuss large features that are coming in our newsletter, but not smaller enhancements. We also do not plan on allowing members to edit their posts in the near future. This would cause a lot of confusion for fast-moving discussions where many people comment within a few minutes. Editing your post could cause all subsequent comments to become unintelligible.
Avatar m tn http://heartburn.about.com/od/gerdacidrefluxdisease/a/knowaboutgerd.htm?nl=1 http://video.about.com/heartburn/GERD.htm?nl=1 I haven't heard anything about it being neurological in nature. I suppose it's possible, since so many with Fibromyalgia have GERD, but your first paragraph is more in line with what GI doctors usually say.
Avatar n tn Since then one has been formed called the Silver Ribbon Foundation for Gyneacological Cancer and I am currently the volunteer Marketing Mgr as I have beat the odds and I am in remission. However the foundation needs your help please, all you need to do is sign up to join the email newsletter as the more people we have receiving the newsletter the more hope we have to gain funding to help us help others with gynae cancers.
Avatar f tn I have FM for over 12 years now, I've read numerous books, I belong to the National Fibromyalgia Network, The Fibromyalgia Association, and follow the latest research on many aspects of FM. These include, medical and pharmaceutical research. There is NO evidence that people with FM have brains that age faster. There is a neurological aspect to FM that can affect our brains. Our neurotransmitters may not be firing right to put it simply.
645390 tn?1338555377 Our local MS chapter provides a quarterly newsletter,and it is a wonderful resource for me. The Spring newsletter came out today, and my son is in it! For his Bar-Mitzvah this past November, he asked guests to bring items for the "Holiday Bag" program. This is our 3rd year helping with this. It is a wonderful program during the holidays, that volunteers bring bags of all sorts of goodies to people with MS who are either homebound or in nursing-assisted living situations.
1236629 tn?1268884764 I still do not know if it is a Corticosteroid or not??? It was given to me by a Fibromyalgia doctor saying that it will only give a chance to the Adrenals to rest and replanish while another holistic doctor has told me that it can actually make the Adrenals more lazy and they will start producing less and less of what they should be producing. Instead of the Cortisol the second doctor recommends supplements like Adrenal Responce and other things. Which doctor is wright?
623156 tn?1322865851 I was reading a weekly newsletter I receive in my email and it mentioned that Zinc is a key natural aid in boosting fertility. For women Zinc helps cell divsion which is critical to the earliest stages of conception and fetal development. For men it helps with adequate levels of testosterone and sperm counts. Research has shown with 15 mgs a day in men it can increase semen and testosterone production, in women it can help ovulation and fertility.
230948 tn?1235844329 ve been trying for 15 years to figure this out. I use to get a newletter from Fibromyalgia Network. I saved one newsletter, it was about the sympathetic nervous system. It just seem to make so much sense. It was tying FM to problems with the sympathetic nervous system. Do a search on that when you have time and see what you think. The fetanyl patch is often used for end stage cancer and is always used for us FM patients. that always struck me as well. I used the patch for a while too.
793305 tn?1493925518 My schedule has gone bonkers and I just don't get out here as often as I'd like so I apologize if I have missed this conversation and repeating information. My father in law gets a newsletter from Dr Julian Whitaker (spelling?) in California. I know he's well known for some folks. Dad gave me a newsletter about thyroid medicince and it says: Naturethroid is a good possibility or there is something out there called Women's International Pharmacy...
572651 tn?1530999357 Was just looking into this drug last night via MS Ireland's latest newsletter. It actually has European Medicines Agency approval, which it received almost simultaneously with FDA approval. However, as you say, this Reuters piece indicates delays in its actual release in Europe. Though they didn't make it clear what the estimates were based on, the MS Ireland newsletter stated that it should be available for patients in Ireland in late 2014 (c. 18 months).
Avatar n tn Because of this board I am now pretty sure I have Fibromyalgia and not going crazy! I had been researching it and was about 90% sure, and then I found this message board and a few members were describing pain I had not been able to find out anything about anywhere else, and it was like "BINGO". Thats it! Even though i suspected Fibromyalgia, the realization that is really is, has hit me hard. I was hoping this pain would go away and to find out now it won't is hard to accept.
Avatar n tn Subscribe to the fibromyalgia newsletter on the Internet and you will be kept up to date with new advances. But, I find were on our own with this. I did not get tingling in my fingertips or toes but I know some people do. I get the tightning of the muscles, you feel like they won't stretch. I use to be in bed for three days at a time. The weather will also affect you, I really feel hot and cold and I cannot be anywhere where cold air is blowing on me.

376186 tn?1219279505 Dr. Bruce West with his Health Alert newsletter has a whole, interesting section on natural approaches to many heart issues. Very interesting! Nutritional supplements, and reasons for the abnormalities! Good luck and get back to me.
398059 tn?1447945633 I just took a time out to read this newsletter - all I can say is I am anxiously awaiting their big announcements. Can this really be the answer? Do we dare to hope? wow! is right.
Avatar f tn There are many other treatments for both migraines and fibromyalgia. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia years ago. I was like a cripple trying to get dressed. Taking a small dose of Trazadone helped me some. Over the years, I kept increasing it which cured most of my symptoms. There is a new fibromyalgia med called Savella which I read praise after praise on another website. Also anti-depressants can serve as pain killers.
