Hi, I look forward to reading through the posts and especially would like to find a success story. I started out with various symptoms, like swelling on the backs of my knees, very weak leg muscles to the point where the muscle feels like it is not working although I could use my muscles, extreme fatigue after meals, then severe memory impairment, followed by excruciating pinched nerve which seems to have triggered the full body fibro pain. I am so confused, when I look back over my childhood it seems that there were always a few things off. I currently have b12 injection, trying to follow a anti inflammatory/paleo diet, and try to get rest. I was on cymbalta for about 10 months. When it caused hallusinations I decided the risks were worse than the fibromyalgia - my do for of course didn't seem to see the issue the way I do. Just in case it helps anyone else. I started seeing a ND, who said that I have hyperinsulinemia, and suspected dairy and gluten allergy. There has been evidence for this in my past. PMS always makes my symptoms much worse. I have had some success with the diet but back slid and have not been able to get back to perfect compliance on the diet. So I am here on another wild goose chase looking for the magic beans. All the best to the rest of you on your journey, hope we can help each other.
