fibromyalgia yoga treatment

Yoga does wonders for my fibromyalgia pain!

boy o boy do I agree with VintageChicken. Your doctor sounds like a prescription nut!. Do you have a diagnosis? or is he just pulling the names of medicine out of his, ah, er, hat? I must say I've never heard of Gabapentin nor Zonegram. I'm sorry to say I have heard of Topamax-simply no place in Fibromyalgia treatment from every report I've heard, read, seen and made from personal experience. It cripples every mind that I've learned about.

Also, you need to quit smoking if you want to have an effective treatment for your Fibromyalgia. Remember, Fibromyalgia is treatable without side effects but you need to find the right doctor and minimize all stresses.

I hope you will check out our Health Pages (located to the right of your screen). Many of the fibromyalgia experts have their treatment plans online and I posted those links. There are also pathogen killing treatments... fairly new and without controversy, but the success stories are impressive. Also.. here are some other links that may be helpful to you. You may want to consider printing any information that you think may be of help to you and sharing it with your physician(s). Good luck !

Why do you say you're a self proclaimed hypochondriac? As for the cymbalta, I took it with no problems & iI have a very long history with bipolar disoder & depression. It didn't make me feel any more suicidal than I had before. The suicide risk is typically higher for teenagers who take the antidepressants. As for continuing the yoga, go for it. Moderate exercise is beneficial for fibromyalgia.

I had only once tested my hbsag quantity since my diagnosis two years ago. The test was done a few weeks ago and came out about 17000iu/ml. In other words quite high, that should warrant treatment immediately, in my opinion, though my dumb doctors won't put me on treatment yet. But I'm going to fight them and insist that I need antiviral treatment.

I have heard of people having hip bursitis with your type of pain, or even pain from sciatica can cause hip pain, which I have, but typically, in order to be diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, you need to have pain in at least 11 of the 18 tender point identified by Rheumatologist for diagnostic purposes. Have you been seen by a Rheumatologist? They would be the doctor best fit to diagnose Fibromyalgia. I have posted a link here from our website (MedHelp) of the common symptoms of Fibromyalgia.

I'm so happy that I found Zarkon's post. I'm 22 years old and I have these sore tender spots all over my body and when I rub them I feel small little nodules. The are so tender that if someone accidentally touches one to hard it brings me to tears. The ones on my ribs hurt the most and I have had them for a while and they won't go away.

I'm new here and I haven't had a fibromyalgia diagnosis, but I have had muscle twitching all over (mostly in my legs) and that has died down quite a bit, but I've have tired muscles and I have been so tired. I get tender spots that hurt for no reason to the touch. This past Saturday I went dancing and almost didn't make it through the first song, my legs started to hurt so bad. I woke up the next morning and it felt like someone had beat my legs with a baseball bat.

I am attending a substance abuse treatment class this Friday and I hope I can get some help there. Any advice I would greatly appreciate.

Fibromyalgia (FMS or Fibro for short) is a chronic condition which causes widespread pain and fatigue as well as a variety of other symptoms. The name Fibromyalgia comes from "fibro" meaning fibrous tissues (such as tendons and ligaments), "my" meaning muscles, and "algia" meaning pain. Fibro does not cause joint pain or swelling. The pain from Fibromyalgia is produced in the soft tissues of the body, including the muscles and tendons. http://www.mayoclinic.

I HAD SOME VERTIGO DIZZINESS AND IT WAS AWFUL, SO WHAT I DID WAS I STOP DRINKING COFFEE AND I STOP SLEEPING ON MY BACK BECAUSE THAT WAS GIVING ME FIRST VERTIGO ATTACK, I JUST SLEEP ON MY BACK, WHAT YOU CAN DO IS YOU CAN GO ON YOUTUBE AND TYPE IN VERTIGO DIZZINESS AND SEARCH FROM THERE, BECAUSE THEY DO HAVE A LOT OF VIDEOS TO TALK ABOUT VERTIGO AND GIVE YOU SOME EXERCISES TO DO, I ALSO DO ANA BRETT YOGA DVDS THAT HELP ME SO MUCH I CAN RECOMMEND THE FAT FREE YOGA CLEANSE IT PURIFYS YOUR BLOOD AND

Starting last fall, I began experiencing back spasms and a feeling of weakness in my legs. This occurred day after my first-ever yoga class. My primary physician said I probably overdid the stretches and triggered a muscle rebound (contracting) problem. An MRI of my back was taken, showing osteoarthritis (which I've known about for years). In fact I've suffered from sciatica before but that was years ago and I've been mostly pain-free since then.

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2011, one of my worst symptoms was upper back pain, right in between my shoulder blades. Not even massages helped. In my experience, it was due to tension. I realized that my shoulders were often scrunched up. Even though it was hard to do at first because I was so tense, yoga helped immensely. Google 'yoga poses for back pain' and there's a lot of good videos that can help.

New to this forum, I found it in search of finding out about post treatment issues. I just completed triple therapy with Interferon (Pegasys), Ribavarin, and Victrelis (Boceprevir) as of May 31st and am having severe joint stiffness in shoulder joints and some nerve twitches (?) in various other places. I wake up every morning and can hardly lift myself out of bed...takes a few hours to be able to raise my arms to do normal activities.

Hi, I am wondering if fibromyalgia can be missed for years before being diagnosed? When I was a kid up until now I have always had muscle pain. Charlie horses, cramps, tingling in my feet & swelling. No doctor ever said anything to my parents or me. Now I'm 34 haven't been able to work for the last 4 wks due to muscle pain, cramps so bad I'm unable to walk, confusion so bad it interfered with my work, my immune system is basically null & void.
