  The best book I've read on treating fibro and CFS naturally is Treating and Beating CFS and Fibro by Dr. Rodger Murphree. His website is treatingandbeating.com.
  
  He uses what's known as orthomolecular medicine to treat fibro and CFS. What it is is giving the body the nutrients it needs in order to function as he believes [and I agree] that fibro is a type of multi-system failure but not at the level that shows up on tests so we end up looking like nuts.
  
  Since I implemented his ideas, I've gone from being what I call 'sick' sick where I felt like death warmed over 95% of the time to where I feel pretty decent 95% of the time. Now, my flares consist of being overly tired rather than having an atypical migraine and feeling like I'd have to perk up to die.
  
  The main things that have helped me are using amino acids to control my brain chemistry, taking an adrenal supplement, magnesium malate and drinking salt water to support my adrenals and keep my blood pressure up.
  
  A great site to buy pharmaceutical grade supplements is vitacost.com. Their housebrand, NSI is very reasonably priced.
