Guest guest Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 I want to thank Carol and Mr Matin Watts, Kathleen and Everyone else who answered. I just saw Carol's email below and assumed that she was the only one who answered so stopped checking the list. Just after that, my Dad got ill and I was unable to look up the group for a while. He's better now. When I got back now I suddenly saw that the email I sent caused people to quarrel. I really only meant to share a few things that helped my pain and maybe hear if anyone else knew of anything, that's all. Fibromyalgia and general pain relief is a common thing that people go to alternative practioners for including Aromatherapists. Therefore I thought it would interest other here. Also the best conventional painkiller I found that suited me was " Zostrix " - capsaicin cream, being based on red pepper extract absorbed through the skin. It took ages to find a conventional doctor to tell me about it after being given tons of things that conventional doctors give first that I found useless or worse like Iburefen, Volteren, NSAIDS etc. I just wondered if there were other things to look for like Zostrix Capsaicin. (I would have checked them up of course.) Anyway Carol I deeply appreciate your effort in looking up things as I know it takes time and effort. I decided not to take it because much of the ingredients in it were more for relaxation/mental clarity etc. I was looking for pain relief. But I still really appreciate you answering. Mr. Martin Watts, I had no idea that there was some law in the UK against giving medical advice on this. I'm going to have a look at your website. I had vitamin D + B's checked. They was low and I am now working to raise it but it doen't seem to help the pain much. Everyone is different and the cause is not yet known. I just wanted to thank everyone who took the effort for answering.
