Willow my blood test for food intolerances put Casein and milk in the high zone,
but I reintroduced yogurt and Kefir and I don't seem to be reacting much to it or not everyday.
Milk used to clog my sinuses but since I'm drinking the kefir, my sinuses are clear at night.... so strange.
Hi Eyesup: Thanks...
It was about 4 years ago that I had a huge FM attack after putting garlic poiwder on rice.
I then read online and this led me to the intestinal yeast connection.
This past winter I was dumping a lot of garlic powder on my food and for once I had no cold over the winter...
Hi EmmaLVee; I made a typo I meant having the right balance of gut bacteria.
I don't think we are supposed to have intestinal yeast or very little but sugar is supposed to make it grow
and anti biotics (Willow mentions this above).
The CoQ10 is for heart energy but some of it is made with...
I think the best one is a magnesium and calcium combo pill.
But sometimes I just took a calcium anti acid pill at bed time and it seems to stop my legs from moving.
I hate that when my legs move and wake me up.
Also an epson salt bath would get the magnesium into your calves and feet.
Why do...
Hello all ! :razz:
Here is my introduction...
I was first diagnosed in 1999 by a rheumatologist.
Then it went away, and my PCP at that time said if it went away it's not FM
Then around +2007 a much worse pain and fatigue would come in cycles or waves.
Then by 2010 I had huge pain like I...
Did you try an epsom bath?
Do you ever have day of relief?
I have pain almost everyday and I never know when it's going to flare into a full blown FM attack.
I hope you get relief soon.
I agree, this FM illness robs us of our potential and leaves us isolated.
I sometimes wish we could infect our critics who doubt us or who crap on us.
All that negativity is anti-healing for us.
I hope you can find an understanding friend or a hobby to escape to.
Thanks - Yes that would be a good idea as long as we are not relegated to a corner of the forum.
Society doesn't accept a man can have an illness like FM that makes him weak and we are mocked and ostracized.
