I like everything you had to say in your response to the censorship posting and agree with what you wrote.I could tell that you did take the time to read all the postings.With my postings you'd never guess I got A's in both composition 1 and 2 in college only a few years ago.I'm allowed to blame it on being a blond lol.
Chicken Soup
Hello friend! Join me in a bowl of Chicken Soup? I have a terrible sinus infection. I knew it was coming and I sent an E-mail to my doctor asking for antibiotics. She prescribed them, but a day after it started to get really painful. I'm using the Netti pot too and humidifier. Just miserable pain with these things! Thank you for your calls! I will call you soon, if you don't call me first! Love ya!'
Thanks

Thanks for the compliment on my decorating post. I love interior design, but wish I had a bigger budget to do more with! LOL :)

This avatar is me and Bear on the cruise. LOL I find most of them through search engines. I just type in "fibromyalgia poems". There's a lot of good stuff out there. Gentle hugs....

Close Fibromyalgia
I've had fibromyalgia for 7 years now. It all started when I contracted Fifth disease (a common kid's virus) at age 40. My first diagnosis was Lupus, then rheumatoid arthritis and finally settled into full blown fibro. I have good days and bad. No prescription meds have helped.
Treatments
- 5-HTP Somewhat Helpful
- Seems to help with deeper sleep and slightly helpful with muscle pain.
- Acupressure Working / Worked
- I have one of those Theracanes that help you give yourself a massage or administer pressure to trigger points. It gives me temporary relief when I have extreme pain.
- Cymbalta Not Working
- It initially helped me achieve a deeper sleep but then gave me horrible restless leg syndrome.
- Heat Not Working
- Vitamin B12 Somewhat Helpful
Close Vegetarians & Vegans
Type: Lacto-ovo vegetarianism (No meat)I've been a vegetarian now for over a year. I had been reducing my meat intake for years. After I acquired Fibromyalgia, I went on a nutrition quest when pain killers didn't even work. I eventually went on a 21 day juice fast to see if detoxing could help my pain and then never went back to meat! Going veg has helped tremendously with my fibro!
Treatments
- Raw Food Diet Working / Worked
- I did a 21 day juice fast and felt great afterwards.
- Vitamin B12 Working / Worked
- I supplement with b12 if I'm not eating eggs.
