Help is on the way if you want it!
The first thing that you need to do to get a permanent handle on fibromyalgia is to begin counseling if you havent already done so. The largest contributor to fibromyalgia is your mental health status. There may be some old baggage from your childhood or teen years that you havent been able to let go of. Psychosocial factors can really impact a person's inability to recover and move on. People have been known to become totally disabled and unproductive due to the diagnosis of fibromyalgia. The diagnosis is a relatively new term that physicians came up with when they couldn't identify a clear etiology for their patients reported symptoms (similar to Residual Sympathetic Dystrophy, Chronic fatigue syndrome). I used to work for a multidisciplinary pain management program facility. It was the team's firm belief that in order to affectively treat fibromyalgia, you need to include psychological counseling with an aggressive physical exercise program. Water aerobics is a great source of non-impact exercises. also, you really need to begin a good regime of vitamins, minerals and amino acids, take them three times per day, every day.....you will be suprised what a difference that will make to you. Anyway, I spent many years researching vitamins, minerals and amino acids, and believe in them 100%. What people don't get is that the body gets rid of any vitamins, minerals, and amino acids within 2 hours of ingesting them....so, after 2 hours your body needs them again....there is only one vitamin you can overdose on and that is Vitamin K....anyway, hope this helps, justjulied
