Fibromyalgia is complicated. Everyone is different. Movement is essential. I know a lot of people with fibromyalgia. I’ve had it for 23+ years. Cannot over do it, that’ll make it worse. Finding the right balance of resting and movement takes time. I’ve kept a journal for many years noting what increases pain/fatigue. The more I laid in bed the more I hurt. If I over do it working in the yard, I hurt for days. Stretching is effective. I started slow and easy. Stretching helps my muscles relax and it helps with my mental fog (controlled breathing while stretching). Keeping a journal was the best thing I have done to find what works and what doesn’t.

I realise this comment was made 3 years ago. I’m so impressed with the journal I’m going to do the same. I agree sometimes you’re in so much pain all you want to do is stay in bed, but moving is the key. I’ve learnt to pace, move but don’t over do it. Thanks Bob and Brad, first for recognising fibromyalgia is real, and thanks for having the good Dr on.

Thank you! I have been a long-time sufferer. There was a time when I couldn't get out of bed...tired and in pain. I now eat Keto and do intermittent fasting. I do meditation. I'm terrible about movement and that has been my downfall. But eating WELL through Keto and keeping my weight down has decreased my pain an incredible amount. When I eat crap I feel miserable. I needed the reminder to get moving more consistently. I know it helps tremendously!

So the implication I am getting from this is that if I move more I won’t hurt. Funny, I have maintained a full time job, walking regularly, still fairly functional although I have developed some arthritis and disc problems from years of working as a nurse doing a lot of lifting, transfers etc, Never in all those 35 years since diagnosis has my fibromyalgia pain decreased because of activity.

Good. Golly!! kcnurse19 !! Idk HOW the HECK you can even do nursing while suffering with fibro!! Ugh. I don’t feel better the more I do. I feel worse. For then DAYS! I’d guess you can relate! 12 years ago when I was 48, I could go to my camper and do everything by myself. With my dog, of course. 🐶. Now, I’m neatly 61. My daughter and I live together which helps her, but it also really helps me, honestly. I haven’t been able to go out and enjoy my camper for several years now because I just. have. nothing!! Anymore. I’m in bed. A lot!!Plus my back and feet have been just crazy with pain so I had them both checked out so now I have the spondylolisthesis like Brad has and my arthritis doctor said, oh well some people don’t even get pain with that and I said well I don’t know. I guess I am not that person! I have a rheumatologist, a regular medical doctor, any pain management doctor. ENT and Gastroenterologist. Back in the day you just had a doctor not you go to 10 of them and nobody knows what anybody else is doing. it’s just a messed up thing. I normally type better it’s been a long day and I’m really tired but it’s nice to meet you! Truly, it is :-) there’s a app and website called the mighty that is for peoples conditions and there’s some helpful tips on there and you can talk to others with conditions like your own. And I’m on a couple Facebook groups of pain management. That helps too. Please, take care!! Especially right now, in your field!!! I know how bad it is! My niece is a physician not far from where we live. She keeps telling us we haven’t seen anything yet! Nite

kcnurse: Nice that you have invalidated others with fibromyalgia. Many doctors diagnose people with FM and it isn't FM at all. If you are still functioning as you say you are, then you either have a very slight condition or someone was pulling your leg when they labelled you with that diagnoses. If you lived a life involving FM and remained working in the traditional medical system, then you would not have known much about this medical condition. It was neither recognized nor respected by conventional doctors back in the 80's, only Naturopaths. Been there done that in one of the most progressive cities in N. America.

@kcnurse19 4 жыл бұрын

Sleeping Lioness sorry but you do not even know what you are talking about. Not only have I worked in traditional medicine but I have been treated by traditional doctors. I have participated in university studies regarding best treatment regimens to remain functional with fibromyalgia. I may have been able to continue working but that does not mean I have had a full life. I work because I have to in order to take care of my family. I do not, however hike mountains anymore and my recreational activity level is almost nil as I expend all my energy on must dos. How dare you judge me without knowing me. Your judgement regarding my level of functioning is every bit as arrogant as doctors who used to assume when I told them my diagnosis that I was in their office seeking drugs. People’s experiences with this condition are as individual as any other health condition. You cookie cutter armchair diagnostic skills are not welcome.

kcnurse19 I’ve been accused of drug seeking, after my first hip replacement went bad after 11 months and the doctor said it was perfect and I was there to get drugs.

My daughter had extensive pain when she was 18 and then again at 22. She had sensitivity to sound and to light, headaches, brain fog (this A+ student couldn't link 2 sentences together), depression, joint pain in all joints, sensitivity to touch over her whole body and constant tiredness. I looked online and found a chiropractor 65 miles away who advertised that he could help fibromyalgia with “brain-based therapy.” Much of the therapy involved balance exercises while breathing oxygen, which immediately started giving some relief. After extensive testing he told her to go off gluten. She hadn’t noticed stomach or gut issues, but followed the diet faithfully. After a few months she found that a little bit of wheat would feel like shards of glass in her stomach. She became more sensitive to smaller amounts over time. After a few years she realized that she was getting all the fibromyalgia symptoms along with the shards of glass. And then one Thanksgiving she found that breathing flour in the air gave her all the fibro symptoms without the shards of glass feeling. So she is very healthy as long as she can avoid gluten completely. I’m not sure if that counts as a cure, but it certainly seems like it.

It feels like your just trying to sell stuff to desperate people, that's the worst, whether it's a book or a lifestyle, the feeling of being sold something that you need to feel better is awful. Especially when you have spent years trying different things and have exhausted all the options you have the strength for. We need a pathway to recovery, like when someone is diagnosed with cancer and is told, here's what we do next, we're not told where to go from here when diagnosed, and if not we never get help.

Improving one's health is an investment and unfortunately you're probably going to have to spend some money. The folks that studied and wrote the book, developed a plan spent their valuable time investing in research and documentation. Many things can be found online or at the library. Radical diet improvement is always a good place to start, but it'll cost more to buy healthy foods than to eat hot dogs and Mac and cheese. Exercise, however small a start is also a great thing. I'm sorry you're having health and financial issues, but so am I. Nobody owes me anything. I'm thankful for what I have and I give thanks to God for the wisdom and healing options He gives me - Including helpful videos from Bob and Brad.

Poverty limits the time some of us have to actually help ourselves. I cant slow down as much as my body needs to in order to heal. Its a constant game of do what im capable of and not necessarily priority. That ends up adding stress cause our livelihoods are now affected and boom, more pain.

When my rheumatologist diagnosed me with it, he said it is real pain. He then implied it was less than a real condition when he said things like: it’s mostly middle-aged women who present to him with these pain complaints, & they often have traumas from unhealthy relationships/events. I didn’t know what to make of that statement at the time... he had just examined me and tested my pressure points for pain tolerance and told me & my husband who was with me at the appt that that’s what I had that was causing my pain. When he had mentioned the troubled relationship / marriage component, I was in shock because I felt that was me! I never said anything nor did my husband, just looked at the dr dumbfounded. His solution: a sleep study & subsequent sleep apnea equipment, PT work (bad osteoarthritis) & an antidepressant which I can’t remember but it didn’t agree with me (made me anxious & sleepless.) I gave up a while ago on those treatments & the sleep apnea machine. I’m still in my unsupportive & at times emotionally abusive marriage. And I still have fibromyalgia. Just not sure where to turn anymore.

Very interesting. I believe this. I have heard that it's a result in the body due to not being loved by someone who was supposed to love you like a parent or spouse should. In a sense it's physical pain in the body because of a broken heart. I also believe that it's something that Jesus can heal. And crucial for us to forgive those people who failed to love us properly.

Unfortunately, he can often be correct about the trauma component, but the offhanded delivery is BS. A Harvard psychiatrist who was foundational in the 'discovery'/diagnosis of PTSD from it's modern beginnings in Vietnam War vets has stayed unbelievably involved in the neuroscience component, much like Dr. Lowe their guest was speaking of. While Dr. Lowe focuses on teaching physical therapists and physicians about the importance of how we can help help people to retrain their brains, this Harvard psychologist gets more into some of the psychological 'why' that is so often associated with chronic intermittent conditions, like fibromyalgia, irritable bowel, and others. The book is called The Body Keeps the Score. It's absolutely fascinating.

I came down with fibro as a single mom in my early/mid-30's during a phase when I was experiencing chronic illnesses due to vaccine injury and my antidepressant being switched to a generic. My parents and most family had long been estranged. I lost my job, home, pets, kids, independence and dignity. My twin sister stopped talking to me (as we have had a tumultuous relationship all our lives). It was and still is hell on earth. I am destitute, in pain 24/7, and drs cant, dont, wont help. Things got a lot better when I accepted I would be in pain forever and gave myself permission to be lazy and selfish. I was the type of person who could never sit still for long but am mostly homebound/bedbound now at 44. I wouldnt wish this isolated, lonely, miserable life on anyone! Thankfully my sister and i made up and i found a stranger online to take me in. For a decade I was homeless and bed surfing, couch hopping, sleeping on floors, staying with a creepy uncle, putting up with abuse of every kind because I had no way to provide for myself. I feel for all the people suffering out there. The drs do have pain meds that work but they refuse to prescribe them. Its evil. I feel grateful that every day that passes is a day closer to the end!

@@Nan-59 fibro is caused by calcium phosphate deposits in the cells of the body which the kidneys are unable to get rid of. The calcium phosphate disrupts all the functions of the body including muscle pains where the deposits are located and brain fog. Once the deposits are removed with the help of guai your body slowly starts to heal. The getting rid of the deposits happen at a rate of 6x the rate of input so it is painful in the beginning but once you are over the hump you will start to have good days compared to bad and they will become more frequent. The one thing that blocks guai in the kidneys which are responsible for the excretion is any type of salicylates..which are plant products... example tea, aspirin, mint, .. you will read about it in the book. Once you get things on board and in time of clearing the deposits from the body you will be able to function again. Also watch your diet.. try to eat healthy and avoid sugar and lots of carbs which convert to sugar. Sugar makes one feel bad. Hope this helps. Read the book, get the guai ..guardian brand from amazon.. (it must not contain any blue dye which blocks) and there is also a facebook group under claudia M.i forgot her last name.. one of the authors of the book.. so you can ask questions there. There is hope... just no one knows about this protocol. And other drs dont want to listen to it because it does not make money... as guai is cheap. Good Luck!

I've had fibromyalgia(diagnosed) for 31 yrs. Unfortunately I don't have health insurance or the money to see a chiropractor or massage therapist. It is so hard to hurt everyday. I do walk and stretch everyday, but as I am getting older, hard to sleep due to the pain in the shoulders, and back when standing. Not sure what I can do now. I have bought many books as I can afford it, but don't have the money to get help. I was really hoping that this video would give me ideas, I cannot afford a therapist.

Im destitute too so i am limited with what I can do to help myself. Some things I do are self massage (scalp & face massages, foot reflexology), exercises for people who are bedbound, EFT tapping, walking, meditation, use a foam roller, self pleasure, eat as healthy as possible (limit or avoid sugar, meat, bread) and avoid stress. It's an every day battle against pain and frustration. I feel for anyone that has to go thru this horrible condition. It's stolen a decade of my life away and everything I ever had or worked for. Sending strength, endurance, and love to all the pain warriors out there!

@moonstrukk126 4 жыл бұрын

"fibromyalgia" isn't muscle pain. It's most likely a chemical issue. Humans have natural pain relieving hormonal responses. People with "fibromyalgia" do not have the appropriate responses chemically to pain. So if you have arthritis and you move more, it may help the arthritis, but the pain response is personally and very subjective. I've been "sensitive" my entire life. This works both ways, for pain and pleasure. I feel like "fibromyalgia" has been used as a blanket diagnosis so doctors offices can get paid and drug companies can make money.

Unless you actually suffer from fibromyalgia all your life you have no idea what it’s like. All the research and study cannot get rid of fibromyalgia because everyone’s body is different and some people have other illnesses in there body as well as fibromyalgia. Non of these men siting hear dictating about fibromyalgia suffer from fibromyalgia just look at them non of them have chronic pain get real. Exercise increases your pain and inflames it makes it worse l have tried everything all specialists, exercises even yoga the yoga teacher told me that l should not do yoga because the pain is far to intense. I have had fibromyalgia all my life not just a couple of years all my life l believe l was born with it l couldn’t understand why it hurt so much to do any sport at school the doctors just said back then it was growing pains what crap anyway it just got worse when l reached 20 years old after l had my baby’s, after years of trying to find out where and what this chronic pain was l finally got diagnosed with fibromyalgia at the age of 35 and depression the anti depressant when taken that l am on does help for a while Effexor XR l am now 64 years old and had to stop working because l just cannot work anymore the pain is far to bad the only medication that reliefs my pain for a while is pannadiene forte l am allergic to all other pain relief but thank god not this one. Codeine is why l was able to keep my job for years but when they took it of the over the counter l had to stop working because you can only get it by prescription now and they only give you one box at a time it’s so unfair for people like me l have no quality of life anymore l just cannot fight fibromyalgia anymore it’s to much. These so called experts really have no idea what there talking about when it comes to someone like me. If someone has fibromyalgia and what they say works for them they are extremely lucky but but how long have they had fibromyalgia for mmm a couple of years mmm. Well l have had it all my life.

@lorainewaring539 Жыл бұрын

I'm exactly the same as you. Now 72, I believe I've had it all my life. Only diagnosed a couple of years ago and that was after l read about it and suggested to my doctor could that be what l had.Didn't understand why l was exhausted walking up the hill to school and having pains in my chest but just assumed everyone else felt the same. When l had dental work done always needed far more injections than usual. I've had a tremendous amount of stress in my life which doesn't help. Pregabalin has made me gain weight which also doesn't help. Exercise leaves me in agony. It's not a cure all for everyone.Sleeping is difficult as every position hurts. Not sure also that if it's in my brain why is my left leg so swollen? Isn't that physical? I don't know just saying.

@leanneward5244 Жыл бұрын

People who miss use codeine and other strong pain medications wrongly have ruined it for people like me who doesn’t miss use it they have made it so hard for us to relieve our pain that we have to suffer a lot of the time and can’t even use the correct dose because we are afraid they will take it of us and then we will have no pain relief at all. The only pain medication that l am not allergic to is pannadiene forte. As we fibromyalgia people know that Panadol or Panadol osteo does absolutely nothing for our pain.
