Snake Oil (fibromyalgia)
J:
You have Fibro too?
That ****s.
I tend to differ with you on the "not an immune problem" argument.
Every time I get a cold or flu, the fibro symptoms disappear almost
entirely.
I think that Fibromyalgia is not a disease - it is a symptom. Just
like "poor fuel economy" is a symptom on a vehicle. Cause could be
towing a trailer, bad wheel alignment, funky gasoline, low engine oil,
improperly inflated tires, driving uphill against the wind...
All those are the causes and multiple causes contribute to the
symptom.
The only effective treatment for Fibro that I've found is to keep
doing as much of the 'good' stuff and as little of the 'bad' stuff as
you can. I actually tried hydrogen peroxide therapy and it seemed to
help dramatically. It cleaned my digestive tract out, so maybe my
fibro was affected by some kind of imbalance in the digestive tract.
I'm waiting for another major flare up to give it the confirming test.
Applied Kinesiology helps too. Doesn't cure the fibro, but makes your
body less sensitive to the affects.
