| Find a good Neurologist!!! I just cannot put enough emphasis on that! Most MD's or Pain Specialists are simply not qualified to treat such a complicated illness. Ask specifically if the neurologist you are considering has vast experience in treating Fibromyalgia and will prescribe narcotic pain medications. Many neurologists who treat Fibromyalgia also treat MS because the symptoms are very similiar and are commonly misdiagnosed as each other. (I was misdiagnosed as having MS before I was diagnosed as having Fibro.) Finding the right doctor is very important and difficult to do. Do not be afraid to ask questions. |
| Fibromyalgia affects each individual differently. Sure, there are common symptoms but they vary in intensity for each individual. Learn your body. Learn everything you can about how Fibromyalgia affects your body. This will enable you to develop your vitamin regiment. Yes, Vitamin regiment - you will need one. (I take twenty-three supplements a day, in addition to my prescribed medications.) You will need to research how each vitamin acts with your system, which ones you need to help alleviate or ease your symptoms and which foods carry these nutrients so that you can add them to your diet. For example: a common symptom of Fibro is IBS or 'Irritable Bowel Syndrome'. In addition to making modifications in your diet, supplements such flare-ups. Supplements can truly help reduce your Fibro symptoms. Start a journal. Be aware of your symptoms and research vitamin HERE. Also, the links below offer great supplements for FM treatment. When visiting these links, type "Fibromyalgia" into your search and the results will be the recommended supplements for treatment. |

Supplements are a vital part of your FM treatment and quality is the key! |

| Featured Article How to Avoid the High Cost of Healthcare Author: Ronald Godlewski There is a storm brewing in America. It has the power to ruin lives directly and indirectly. The storm will wreak more havoc than any natural disaster in history. The name of the storm is not a common name like Katrina. This storm's name is called "America's Health Care Crisis." The early signs are already here. Just consider these facts: * Every 30 seconds, someone in the United States files bankruptcy due to a serious health problem. * According to a Harvard University study, 50 percent of all bankruptcy filings in the United States are the direct result of medical expenses. * Health care spending in the U.S. is more than $1.8 TRILLION! * In 2003, the U.S. spent 15.3% of its Gross Domestic Product (GDP) on health care. * Premiums for employer-sponsored health insurance in the U.S. have risen five times faster than workers' earnings since 2000. * Experts predict retiring elderly couples will need a conservative $200,000 to pay for basic medical services and most experts agree that the number is probably closer to $300,000. With the cost of services going up, the demand for those services is also increasing. Consider the following: * Cancer rates have exploded from 1 death in 20 in 1910 to 1 death in 3 in 2006. * Diabetes Type 2 (adult onset) has exploded by 600% in just the last generation. * Heart Disease deaths went from obscurity in the early 1900's to the #2 killer in America. * Stroke moved from obscurity to the #3 killer and the #1 cause of disability in the US. * Auto-immune disorders like Chronic Fatigue and Fibromyalgia have become commonplace... ...more |
