Chinese Traditional Medicine , " Lumber Jack "

 

 

Hi,

I am new to the group. I can across this message and I also have

fibromyalgia, also for the last 2 years suffered with chronic tennis

elbow and now seem to have gout in my big toe. Could you or anyone

suggest how I could treat these conditions with natural theropy, I am

having to return to work because of severe money problems after my

husband severed his tendans in his hand and is on the sick, and I am

very worried I will not be able to cope.

 

With Regards Vicki

I have heard the following have helped .. Try lemon water. If you eat meat, eat

much less or stay of it for a while.

Money is a problem, these are good starting point.

If this is one of my problems, how do you find out if it is related?

 

***You should also make sure your problem isn't related to a chronic case of constipation or diarrhea—either of which can flood the body with toxins and create aches throughout. ***

Having been diagnosed for over 10 years with Fibro, all I can say is, learn.

Learn to live with it.

Learn to live with yourself.

Learn to live with others.

 

and for practical purposes....

 

Diet. I've done better since I changed my diet to a low fat, low carbohydrate, high protein diet. I do not eat (if I can help it) Wheat, corn, dairy (other than yogurt, cottage cheese, whey protein), and soy. These aggrevate my condition the most. Alcohol also causes problems. I have a regimine of vitamins and minerals I take daily to help...see below.

 

Exercise. This is the fun part. You're going to hurt whether or not you exercise. I feel better when I exercise because I think I give myself a REASON to hurt.

 

Power of Positive Thinking. Meditation has helped somewhat. I'm back at school, my psychology classes are good therapy.

 

I make myself do things that I know I'll pay for later because I WANT to do them. I WANT to ride horses chasing cows for six hours for a weekend every other month. I WANT to hike to a local watering hole (I live in the desert) because I can put my body into a natural body of water, regardless of the algae. I WANT to make love to the man I am marrying, even though I'll hurt later. I WANT to clean my house, because its more comfortable than sitting around in a dirty one.

 

One of the main causes of Fibromyalgia is Sleep Disturbances. The only way your Dr will give you a sleep study is if you tell them your Partner or Someone says they noticed you quit breathing during the night (sleep apnea). It took me years to get a sleep study, they found I have Restless Leg Syndrome and a severe case of Periodic Limb Movement Disorder (a hereditary condition). Stress is another major factor which will worsen Fibromyalgia. Learning Stress reduction techniques will help in the long run.

Malic Acid (contains Magnesium) has helped me. It helps with the Krebbs Cycle.

Flaxseed oil (contains Omega-3, Omega-6, & Omega-9 fatty acids) at nightVitamin C (I take up to 4gms -4000mg- per day)

Lactobacillus Acidophillus (and other normal gut flora) twice a day

Multi Vitamin/Mineral without Iron (at night)

Multi Vitamin/Mineral with Iron (in the morning)

B Complex Vitamins (water soluble, can take more than one a day)

Magnesium (when I run out of Malic Acid) at night

Meds I'm on:

Sinemet -Carbidopa/LevaDopa (anti parkinson's drug for RLS)

Armour Thyroid (for dry skin, hot flashes, thin hair, digestive problems)

Neurontin (for post herpatic neuralgia from Shingles)

Soma (for muscle spasms at night)

Skelexin (for muscle spasms during work days)

Vicodan (as needed for severe pain)

Excederin Extra Strength (as needed for moderate pain)

I know what you're about to go through. Its been a long hard struggle for me, but I'm thankful for supporting friends and family. Keeping a positive outlook, laughing at yourself and your problems (laughter is GREAT medicine), and just taking time to love and care for yourself will help a lot.

Therapeutic massage won't cure it, but it will allow you a way to begin to

listen to your body, and give you a way of coping with it. As you listen

to your body, it will reveal to you the roots of the disorder.

 

I have had fibromyalgia clients who came for massage about twice a month.

It was part of what they did for themselves, and it allowed them to have a

fairly normal life. It was for them a way of listening and living.

Linda,

 

Have you tried the Q-Ray Ionized Bracelet? The ionized bracelets are

not known for any side effects, except for people who are allergic to

metal.

 

Hope this helps.

Linda,

 

You have my sympathy, but don't give up hope.

 

Most auto-immune conditions can be much improved

by cleaning out the colon, cleansing and activating the liver, improving digestion, healing "leaky gut", and

encouraging the growth of the right intestinal bacteria.

 

All the above measures build health, they don't treat disease.

 

Undetected food sensitivities or allergies are often

at the root of auto-immune conditions.

 

How do you find out what foods don't agree with you?

Play with it!

Start a food diary and notice how you feel after eating what when..

 

This is a bit of work, but only YOU can be the

expert on your body.

 

What is your diet like right now?

What sort of bedding do you use?

What are you putting on your face, and cleaning

your house with?

 

All those factors make a difference.

 

Here is an excellent website on the topic of

food sensitivities.

I much prefer whole live foods from Nature to

the fragmented supplements the website talk about,

but that is my prejudice.

 

 

www.alternate-health.com

 

You might want to invest $20 in Dr Bates' new subliminal program. It might help you to sleep.

I have known Dr Phil Bate online for a few years

now. He is a total sweetheart and practically

gives his inventions away.

I have fibromyalgia also. They have been trying to treat it with various drugs for years and nothing helps. Between the pain and the insomnia, I have no life.

 

I am trying to change my diet to include more fruits/living foods and less cooked. I take various supplements.

I have fibro and RLS. I agree with what you say. Also learn your limitations. Listen to them. I have a little story comparing energy to spoons - if you would like it, let me know and I'll email it to you.

 

Another suggestion (and I don't like it myself) is exercise. The more you can do, the better you will feel.

Its true that massage does not CURE, but my gawds, it DOES HELP.

I find that I enjoy being touched in a NON SEXUAL way. My sig other does

not have the endruance to massage knots out of the knots in my muscles. An

hour long massage JUST gets to the beginning of the problem, and I can't

afford much more.

 

I do appreciate the benefits though:

an hour out of my life to do something JUST FOR ME!

an hour of relaxation, peace, and bunches of the hormone Oxytocin (comes

from being touched)

soft music in the background, low lights, pleasant scents.

someone to rub my feet, reflexology, easing the pressures of pressure

itself.

 

I recommend it, wholeheartedly, and I'd do it more often if I could afford

it. Insurance doesn't pay, and I'm already strapped.

I agree with the real cause of fibromyalgia. I believe the cause of all disease is poor nutrition, lack of exercise, stress, environmental toxins.

 

The body has an amazing capability to heal when given whole foods, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, probiotics and fiber and natural remedies and

therapies that help bring the body back into balance.

 

With fibromyalgia you should avoid immune stimulants. Inflammation needs to be brought under control and there is typically a

deficiency of the adrenal hormone cortisol, which controls inflammation in the body. Supplements that can be used to reduce inflammation

are licorice, yucca and white willow bark.

 

Muscles go into spasm when they are exhausted, so increasing energy production in the cells is important. Fibralgia is a combination of malic

acid and magnesium, which helps increase energy in the muscle cells and enable them to relax. Magnesium deficiency is probably a major factor

in this disorder.

 

Some other herbs that can be used to reduce muscle cramping and pain are kava kava and lobelia. A gentle detoxification is also recommended

for a person who has fibromyalgia.

Those who suffer from fibromyalgia may need to cleanse and detoxify the liver.

 

It is a condition of high acid and the use of a product such as VitaGreen is

recommended

to get alkaline balance.

 

Anti inflammatory oils such as birch, helichrysum, lavender, mrrh, patchouly,

and

rosemary may also be helpful.

 

Wishing health to all,

here is my file on the subject derived from the edgar cayce stuff in

part

OVERVIEW OF FIBROMYALGIA

Fibromyalgia is a chronic disorder characterized by widespread

musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, and multiple tender points. " Tender

points " refers to tenderness that occurs in precise, localized

areas, particularly in the neck, spine, shoulders, and hips. People

with this syndrome may also experience sleep disturbances, morning

stiffness, irritable bowel syndrome, anxiety, and other symptoms.

 

According to the American College of Rheumatology, fibromyalgia

affects 3 to 6 million Americans. It primarily occurs in women of

childbearing age, but children, the elderly, and men can also be

affected.

 

Treatment of fibromyalgia requires a comprehensive approach. The

physician, physical therapist, and patient may all play an active

role in the management of fibromyalgia. Studies have shown that

aerobic exercise, such as swimming and walking, improves muscle

fitness and reduces muscle pain and tenderness.

 

Heat and massage may also give short-term relief. Antidepressant

medications may help elevate mood, improve quality of sleep, and

relax muscles. Fibromyalgia patients may benefit from a combination

of exercise, medication, physical therapy, and relaxation.

 

EDGAR CAYCE'S PERSPECTIVE ON FIBROMYALGIA

During Edgar Cayce's era it was commonly called muscular rheumatism.

Several individuals with this diagnosis received readings on their

condition.

For example, reading

5233-1 was given for a seventy-nine-year-old man who was suffering

from muscular rheumatism:

 

TEXT OF READING 5233-1 M 79 (Retired, Christian)

 

Cayce found much that is very good about the general physical forces

of this body. But there is, such anxiety about the general

conditions and the reflexes that this brings on the very conditions

which one fears.

 

if there are good eliminations daily, sufficient exercise, physical,

mental and spiritual, and an even balance or coordinant activity

kept, we may live a full life expectancy.

 

 

There were indulgences as to eat and drink. These have left their

effect upon the circulation between the liver and the kidneys. Thus

the cleansing of the alimentary canal, either by flushing at times

with the mineral salts, at other times vegetable compounds, would be

well. But the more preferable between these would be irrigation of

the alimentary canal or cleansing the colon, using properties in

combination which

 

in the gallon of water put a heaping teaspoonful of salt and a level

teaspoonful of baking soda. This dissolved and used in the water

will be much preferable and will not make for a strain

on the body. Use a tablespoon of plain Petrolagar stirred in the

last quart and a half for the rinse water.

Sweats and massages and a general circulation by specifice exercises

will keep this body physically satisfactory.

 

Can a cure be effected for chronic bronchitis? (A) This will be

improved as nature responds through increased or bettered

circulation, with less and less poisons in the system.

 

(Q) What can be done for muscular rheumatism?

Do these things indicated and the conditions where there is the

effect to heart, liver, lungs and kidneys will be improved; which

all are a part of the general conditions here.

Be moderate in all things; not to excess in any, and we'll have the

98 years of expectancy in this experience, if ye live to deserve

it. But what can you give to others? Unless you have something to

give, what right have you to be in the way of others? Have

something to give; you may live as long as ye are worthy.

 

 

For a female

3255-1 F 64

 

The body should consider as to the sources and causes for the

neuritic and neurotic conditions that exist through the body. This

is what might ordinarily be called a condition wherein the general

taxation has run down the battery for the body; that is, the toxic

forces in the body

have become excessive.

 

Thus there are pains in the arms, or shoulders at times, in the

back, through the lower limbs and through the abdominal area. All

of these come and go,

dependent upon how well and how thoroughly the eliminations are in

the body, and as to whether in the diet the body keeps the general

physical forces alkaline or allows the greater

portion to become acid.

 

Then we have those reflexes that cause some disturbance with the

heart, with the kidneys and with the liver. These all arise from

toxic forces that affect naturally (for, as the body battery is)

heart, liver, lungs and kidneys. These must coordinate. When they

do not, some portion of it is going to revert.

 

Take at least once each week a general hydrotherapy treatment. This

should include a cabinet sweat followed by a thorough rubdown.

 

About every twenty days have a high colonic irrigation, until there

is no reaction of mucous in the stool at all.

 

After the sweat bath there should be the needle baths or showers

followed by the massages.

 

In the diet beware of too much starches or too much combinations of

proteins with starches.

 

Keep the eliminations better with the use of minerals for this body

rather than vegetable laxatives. Owing to the batteries as it

were - liver, kidneys and heart - being run down.

 

 

The Edgar Cayce readings consistently maintain that the liver and

kidneys serve as the " batteries of the body. " The liver is said to

be the positive pole of the battery, the kidneys the negative.

 

Thus, when the liver and kidneys are deficient in their functioning,

the body's battery may be said to have run down. Fatigue and low

vitality are the result. These features are common in people with

fibromyalgia.

 

Note the emphasis on maintaining a proper alkaline/acid balance.

Keeping the system slightly alkaline was encouraged by Edgar Cayce.

The standard diet recommended by Cayce is helpful in this direction.

 

This woman was told to obtain colonic irrigations, fume baths and

massage, and to use a mild laxative. Thus, internal cleansing was a

major emphasis in the treatment plan for this person.

 

TEXT OF READING 1655-1 F 24

 

Thus we have a complication, for the disturbing forces within this

body are produced by the deflection of energies owing to adhesions

as well as subluxations that exist in the

cerebrospinal system, from lesions having formed from the

disturbance through the periods when the temperature was high.

 

Some time back there were those conditions produced by an intestinal

flu; and the condition produced in the ascending colon, and in the

areas of the caecum as well as those farther up - or as related to

the emptying of the duodenum; and also from inflammatory

conditions - the right ovary.

 

All of these have produced and do produce the conditions where a

neuritic, rheumatic effect has existed; and the effects of the

poison, and the pressures upon the tissue through the area and the

activity of same upon the organs of assimilation, are the seat and

the cause of the disturbance.

 

.. The lesions as formed from same, as we find, are in the 8th and

9th dorsal; as well as reflexes from the 4th and 5th dorsal areas.

These also affect sympathetically those in the lumbar axis. For as

the body has given way in the structural activity to these, there

tends to be an unbalancing in the pelvic bone. Thus we have a

disturbance in the lumbar axis.

 

with the lack of proper eliminations, and overactivity mentally OR

physically - the body tends to tire easily. Also a reaction is

caused from the lack of the full eliminations; as does

cold or congestion of any nature; upsetting the digestive system

as well as the activities of the organs of the pelvis during

Periods; and the general tired and headachey feeling, with an aching

all over when there are disturbances.

 

These as we find, then, may be entirely eliminated - if there is

sufficient time and precaution taken for the body

 

We would have at least eight to ten deep osteopathic manipulations

and adjustments for the areas indicated; the dorsal, lumbar AND the

areas through the cervical and the rest of the dorsal, making for

coordinating with the general activities.

 

In taking the manipulations osteopathically, have a GENERAL

treatment once a week and a specific treatment once a week; that is,

make the corrections in the 4th and 5th and 6th

dorsal, 9th dorsal, 4th lumbar once a week, with a general

coordination; and then have a GENERAL treatment throughout the whole

of the cerebrospinal system another time during the same week.

 

Hence two treatments a week should be given, and fourteen or

fifteen such treatments - half general and half specific - should

be sufficient.

 

use of Codiron as a tonic. Take two tablets each day, one at noon,

one at evening - until at

least fifty have been taken.

 

For the disturbance through the colon, and the activity for the

general forces of the repressions produced in the ovary activity, we

would prepare and take a compound which will - with the properties

in the Codiron - work well with the body. Prepare same in this way

and manner:

 

To 2 ounces of Strained Honey add 2 ounces of Distilled Water.

Let this come to a boil. Skim off all refuse, and when nearly

cool, to this as the carrier, add - in the ORDER

NAMED:

Pure Grain Alcohol................1 1/2 ounces,

Fusion or Elixir of Wild Ginseng....1/4 ounce,

Essence of Indian Turnip............1/2 dram,

Tincture of Stillingia..............1/4 ounce.

 

Shake the solution well before each dose is taken, which would be a

teaspoonful before the morning meal and one just before retiring -

until the whole quantity has been taken.

 

When there is pain or repressions, during those periods of

activities in elimination from the body, use the saturated solution

of Epsom Salts in Packs across the small of the back and over the

lower portion of the abdomen. There will not be required more than

the change once or twice for same, and such Packs should be applied

hot - to the body direct. Use heavy cloths, you see, with other dry

cloths or towels laid over same.

 

The diet should be well-balanced. Keep away from too much of

sweets, too much of starches. Use rather the honey in the

honeycomb as the sweet. Most of the starches should be rather in

whole wheat, or such natures. Vegetables, nuts and fruits should

form the principal portion of the diet. As to potatoes or such

starches, only eat the jackets or that part close to same - or eat

more of the peel than the pulp itself.

 

In the activities of the body keep in the open as much as possible.

 

 

Readings 1655-1 and 1655-2 provide further documentation on the

causes and treatment of fibromyalgia. Most likely, fibromyalgia can

be produced by a variety of factors. One pattern is that the

individuals suffer a prolonged episode of the flu or other

infectious disorder from which they never fully recover. Edgar Cayce

described this pattern in reading 1655-1:

 

Some time back there were those conditions produced by an intestinal

flu; and the condition produced in the ascending colon, and in the

areas of the caecum as well as those farther up - or as related to

the emptying of the duodenum; and also from inflammatory conditions -

the right ovary.

 

All of these have produced and do produce the conditions where a

neuritic, rheumatic effect has existed; and the effects of the

poison, and the pressures upon the tissue through the area and the

activity of same upon the organs of assimilation, are the seat and

the cause of the disturbance...

 

All of these are the disturbances through the activities for this

body. While, through care and attention, these do not produce so

much disturbance, we find that at times - with the lack of proper

eliminations, and overactivity mentally OR physically - the body

tends to tire easily.

 

Also a reaction is caused from the lack of the full eliminations;

as does cold or congestion of any nature; upsetting the digestive

system as well as the activities of the organs of the pelvis during

Periods; and the general tired and headachey feeling, with an aching

all over when there are disturbances. (1655-1)

The mental/emotional aspects of the condition were addressed in the

second reading for this woman:

(Q) Is part of my seeming illness mental?

(A) The attitude, of course, has much to do; but it is rather the

physical condition creating the mental. But make for more hopeful,

more helpful, more constructive thinking - and this would improve

the general condition much. (1655-2)

 

The treatment plan for this person recommended moderate outdoor

exercise and a basic diet with emphasis on fruits and vegetables.

Manual therapy (spinal manipulations) was suggested relieve

pressures along the spine and improve functioning of the hepatic and

digestive systems.

 

Castor oil packs were recommended to assist with eliminations and

relax the body. A ginseng tonic to assist with digestion and

eliminations was prescribed. Minute dosages of beef juice was

recommended to increase vitality.

 

OVERVIEW OF THERAPEUTIC REGIME

The treatments recommended in the Cayce readings on fibromyalgia are

mainly directed toward improving the digestive, circulatory,

nervous, and eliminating systems.

 

Diet, moderate exercise, a mild form of energy medicine (Radial

Appliance), spinal manipulations and general massage, colon

irrigation, and castor oil packs are therapies intended to improve

these vital systemic functions.

 

As was typical of Cayce's holistic approach, the mental and

spiritual aspects of therapy were emphasized.

Here are the basic therapies recommended for the treatment of

fibromyalgia based on the Cayce information on this disorder:

1. 1. INTERNAL CLEANSING: Hydrotherapy includes drinking six to

eight glasses of pure water daily, colonic irrigations (preferably)

or enemas, and a cleansing diet of fresh fruits and vegetables.

2.

Castor oil packs across the abdomen are recommended to improve

eliminations through the liver and colon. Mild laxatives may be

helpful if constipation is a problem. Fume baths assist with

elimination of toxins through the skin.

 

3. MANUAL THERAPY (SPINAL MANIPULATION AND MASSAGE): Osteopathic or

chiropractic treatment is recommended to relieve any pressures that

may be hindering circulation and decreasing eliminations. Gentle

massage is suggested to relax the body and improve circulation and

eliminations.

 

4. DIET: The Basic Cayce Diet is intended to improve assimilation

and elimination. The diet focuses heavily on keeping a proper

alkaline/acid balance while avoiding foods which produce toxicity

and drain the system. Essentially, the diet consists mainly of

fruits and vegetables while avoiding fried foods and refined

carbohydrates ( " junk food " ). Certain food combinations are

emphasized.

 

 

5. ENERGY MEDICINE: In addition to the above therapies which will

tend to improve circulation, the Radial Appliance is recommended to

further assist in increasing relaxation and nervous system

coordination. Edgar Cayce said that this appliance would be helpful

for anyone having problems with disturbed sleep and fatigue.

 

6. MEDICINE: A ginseng tonic is recommended to improve digestion and

eliminations. Small dosages of beef juice are recommended for

persons who experience significant fatigue and lack of vitality.

 

 

7. MODERATE EXERCISE: Walking or other moderate exercise is

recommended. Be outdoors in the open as much as possible.

 

8. ATTITUDES AND EMOTIONS: The mental and emotional aspects of

healing are frequently discussed in the Cayce readings.

Particularly, an attitude of desiring and expecting to be healed is

important. A positive mental and emotional attitude and can be

created and maintained by focusing on a high purpose (ideal) for

being healed.

 

 

 

*FIBROMYALGIA LINKED TO IBS*

 

The Edgar Cayce readings consistently maintain that problems in the

bowel can produce systemic conditions. A recent medical study echoes

this theme.

 

Researchers at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los

Angeles,California may have discovered a simple test that links

fibromyalgia (acondition manifesting as muscle pain) with irritable

bowel syndrome (orIBS, a condition involving abdominal pain,

bloating, and diarrhea).

 

The lactulose breath test (LBT) is used to assess for the presence

of microbes in the bowel in cases of IBS. Some previous studies have

found that nearly one-third of fibromyalgia patients also have IBS.

 

The study, published in the Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases

(April2004), explored the hypothesis that LBT would be abnormal in

both IBS and fibromyalgia patients. The researchers recruited 42

fibromyalgia patients, 111 IBS patients, and 15 healthy control

subjects who were

given the LBT.

 

All the patients with fibromyalgia exhibited abnormal LBT results

compared to 84 percent in the IBS group and 20 percent in the

control group. Furthermore, the amount of hydrogen gas detected in

the LBT correlated with the level of pain in the fibromyalgia

patients.

 

The researchers noted that further studies would be needed to

determine if treatment and normalization of the LBT with antibiotics

can produce improvement in fibromyalgia symptoms.

Further information on other therapies and other ailments will be

found at my web site. Go to

http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/seventhmoon/orion/

 

adding to this would be spiritual/reiki healing

In my opinion, based on what I've learned because my Mom also was

diagnosed with fibromyalgia, fibro is largely due to toxic build-up

in the body.

 

We've tried a ton of stuff with my Mom, who had chemical exposure as

a teen and also had several types of metals in her mouth at the same

time (creates a battery-like effect).

 

Most effective for pain for her was devil's claw but it can only be

taken for a few months at a time. I bought an ionic footbath a year

and a half ago and after 25 treatments her body was pain-free except

for migraines which I think are because of her metal fillings and

possibly food allergies which she won't deal with at this time.

 

I've given her some liquid zeolite to try out since it got rid of my

daughter's migraines that were related to mercury in the brain.

 

Important are to stay away from chemicals and acidic foods like

dairy, pork, caffeine, sugar, etc. and drink lots of water to wash

out toxins. I recently discovered a new anti-inflammatory and will

ask my Mom to try it out since it's eliminated fibromyalgia symptoms

in some people I know. It prevents inflammation from taking place

and takes about two weeks to kick in.

 

Be careful when getting of meds. Read all the stuff that comes with

it, side effects, etc and ask your pharmacist or doctor about

reducing dosages or eliminating since quitting some medications

suddenly can be deadly.

 

What kind of allergies do you have?

Most insurance I have found does not cover

non-traditional medical care. You would have to call

your insurance company to find out if they do.

 

Quantum biofeedback has made wonderful progress in

helping to treat Chronic Fatigue/ Epstein Barr along

with the other symptoms you mentioned. You might

consider it...and it is tax deductible even if your

insurance doesn't cover it. Some companies do cover

Biofeedback.

Hi, I know what you are going through and I am so sorry. This disease

has so many disorders associated with it and the only thing you can do

is treat the symptoms as they appear. I have been suffering from Fibro

offically for 7 years. The worst part has been the other disorders

that have developed over time. I was told by an alternative medicine

doctor to get alot of sun. That my muscles needed more melanin, from

direct or artificial sunlight. I choose to use a tanning bed and it

has helped with the muscle atrophy. I was in a rollover car accident

around 7 months ago and was bedridden for a few months. Getting out of

my routines and trying to stay active made my muscles extremely

painful. I couldn't even be touched without flinching. Painful to even

hug my children. Luckily my husband is a RN. He helped me to rehab,

learn to read, write, walk, talk, etc at home because I hadn't used my

muscles enough to be able to even walk to the car. My muscles have

atrophied but I am starting to become active again. Every day is a

struggle. The most important thing is to try to move all of your

muscles everyday even if just for a few minutes. The worst thing to do

is give in to the pain. I did and this road back is sooooo hard! Use

heat, massage your muscles, move them, a massage shower head is

wonderful, esp for the shoulders. I have a lot of info on Fibro and

many books. I can always look up an answer for you if you need it. Oh

you can also expect to develop Fibro fog, basically memory loss and

confussion. That I didn't expect. I didn't even know till recently

that it was from Fibro.

 

I'm sorry for rambling on. If you have any questions please contact

me. Oh, also many of us get to the point that it is too painful to

move with medication. I wear a Duragesic Fentynal Patch 100mcg. Equal

to 400 mg of morphine a day and I take Soma for the Muscle cramps and

Requip for the restless leg syndrome, plus a ton of other meds. But

thats just part of dealing with this horrible and confusing illness.

 

I wish you the best. Let me know if you need anything else.

 

Blessings,

Monica

Nikki: God Bless You; I will keep you in my prayers, but remember,

this too, shall pass. I don't know whether BCBS covers Naturalpath

but I would suspect not. Perhaps you can call their 800 number and

ask if u can find it online.

I found these links:

also you can check out Ebay or even a spa in a big city near you. I

found a spa in San Francisco that offers an ionic foot bath as one of

their services!

 

Good luck,

I have the Aqua Chi model and I really like it. Yesterday I had a

" detox party " and one of the ladies there who had done foot detoxes

for $75 (!!!!) in the past thought that the Aqua Chi made her feel

better. She could feel tingling in her hands as it was energizing her.
