Fibromyalgia: Making Progress

November 20, 2008

I am always surprised when after a long bout of muscular pain that seems to radiate out of my bones I wake up feeling different and able to conduct a normal routine. It almost seems so out of character that I feel that it really isn’t me, but after a glance in the mirror I am assured that it is really me walking around. I just hope these days can last!

Not only has there been a general push in society to eat healthier, it seems in regards to fibromyalgia that eating healthy has real benefits.  Eating healthy can influence those with fibromyalgia to lower stress, pain  relief, and boost energy levels that fall due to chronic fatigue.  Exercise seems to help as well, by boosting one’s self esteem and over all functionality.  A nutritionist should be consulted before making a dietary changes.

Fibromyalgia Medication

November 13, 2008

There has been much discussion as of late on whether or not Fibromyalgia can be treated with medications.  After looking around for a little bit, I found a great list of fibromyalgia  here.  Although I remain a supporter of holistic methods, I feel that this list will at least add hope for the masses who are willing to try conventional medications.

Many people think that fibromyalgia is just another chronic disease with its own unique set of symptoms.  It is something the sufferer has to put up with, but not beat.  Fibromyalgia is more than a chronic set of symptoms.  It is simply devastating to anyone suffering from it.  With shooting pains in the muscular skeletal system and chronic fatigue, which leads sleepessness at night fibromyalgia is a nightmare. with no cure.

I am praying and hoping that the medical community will find a cure, but I am not expactant any time soon.

It’s true.  With fibromyalgia I feel like I am eternally cursed.  Everyday there is pain and fatigue and although it ebbs and flows, my fibromyalgia never actually goes away.  It is a part of me forever torturing my body and mind.

So many people don’t understand that fibromyalgia is never ending and excruciating.  I hope and pray that they will find a successful treatment.
