You are right LJm2014. Tumeric is great, and a wonderful middle-eastern/Indian seasoning as well ! I put it in dishes with chicken and rice and lots of garlic (always!) if I'm out of my B-100...
Hi AcheyBody. I apologize if I came off as rude. However I was responding in kind the same way Sherrine did to NextAdventure. First she deletes the thread so it can't be found unless you've already...
And again, in your message above to NextAdventure, you have contradicted yourself, stating nowhere in ANY of these studies does is say anything about "tension anxiety, etc". However the Mayo Clinic...
Sherrine, I'm sorry, but you're just hilarious. You point everybody to ready Fibro 101 and Dr. Clauw's research over and over again but I don't even think you have fully grasped what he is saying. In...
I don't totally understand your statement. Fibromyalgia IS CAUSED BY THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM GOING HAYWIRE, due to stress, injury, illness, physical, mental and emotional strain on one's body over...
Sherrine, I absolutely see your point, and understand where you are coming from in the "we are all so different" argument. But I have to agree with NextAdventure and the doctor at Stanford, regarding...
Louise74, your last sentence is spot on, "Stress is just a trigger for the illness that is already there." Also NextAdventure, your documentation throughout this forum has been excellent and...
Savella made me crazy (sub for Effexor) and I went from Lyrica to neurontins. Ended up on Cymbalta (LOVE!) and gabapentin (800 MG 4/day) and do great, also muscle relaxers and clonazepam at night for...
Hormones absolutely have EVERYTHING to do with Fibro. They are all related for the central nervous system so there. When I had my full hysterectomy (giant fibroids) ten years ago at 44 yrs old (no...
Dallas and NE TX is horrible. Long summers with high, high temps and humidity to match. Maybe 2-3 cold months and huge thunderstorms that come in dropping baro pressure way down, it paralyzes me....
Northeast Texas is a killer for me. The super hot temps, high humidity and long summers are miserable on my FM body. I love cool, cold, crisp, even rainy as long as it's not monster thunderstorms....
I've had them all my life and my understanding is that they are caused by my horrible allergies and hayfever. They swell worse in the Indian Summertime (September and October when the weather changes...
I had a lumbar puncture last year to get spinal fluid for check of MS and a SLEW of other possibilities. Neurologist covered It all in blood tests as well. Plus Brain MRI, body scans, CT and several...
So glad to see another weather post here. With what's been described by my doctor as "raging" Fibro, I love cool weather, even cold weather, compared to HOT HUMID weather. Heavy heat is horrible and...
If you have fibromyalgia, then it's almost definitely costochondritis. It was so the first symptom I experincd in my journey towards getting my Fibro diagnosed starting five years ago. Between...
I take 800 MG 4x day gabapentin plus hydrocod/tyl combo of 10/325 MG three x day, along with heavy nighttime muscle relaxers and klonopin, breakfast and dinner time Cymbalta, stomach, allergy, HRT...
Hi, I new here. I've had "Raging" Fibromyalgia for about five years after 30+ years in corporate America. I'm now a stay at home, on disability, fatigued mom to three dogs and wife to a wonderful...
