Melatonin works perfectly for my partner. He has always had trouble sleeping. He used to stay up until 2 or 3am and then get up at 5am. He started taking melatonin 6 weeks ago. He takes it at 9am and...
I had a flare that lasted 10 weeks before. I couldn't even get out of bed on many of those days. Just don't give up. Keep trying to improve your health. Best wishes....
I have needed help to find my car in a walmart parking lot....3 times. One time I had to call a friend to come and get me so I could drive around the lot to find it. My mind was a complete blank, I...
Megs38, Hi. I work full time. I was struggling for a while but I have a handle on it now. What has helped me the most is earthing. I spend my lunch hour outside. I go to the park around the corner...
Hi sapoho. I am new to this forum as well. I have been dealing with fibro for almost 4 years now. At first it was overwhelming. I was like you. Always exhausted. I could barely get through my work...
My muscles were like that for a long time. They would burn as if I had been lifting weights for hours. At one point, I needed help just to brush my hair because I was unable to lift and hold my arms...
My legs, feet and toes go numb at least twice a week. I have a hard time walking and I become fidgety. I am uncomfortable standing or sitting for more than a minute. So I get up and sit down, I shift...
I just wanted to mentioned that adding healthy foods to your diet doesn't have to be overly expensive. You can avoid many of the specialty health foods and still improve your diet. I am not...
I agree with the above poster. Antidepressants could be the issue if she is on them. For me libido has never been a problem. When having flares, I get frustrated because I cannot do the things I want...
You are welcome. It's not a cure all, but if you are sensitive to gluten then taking it out will help you out a great deal. I hope you get some relief soon. I know that having pain daily is very...
Its funny that you had margaritas. I have the same problem. I can sometimes have a glass of wine or other alcoholic drinks. But I really don't drink very often. But the last two times I had a...
I suffered severe childhood abuse. I almost died as a result of "failure to thrive". But my mother regained custody continued the abuse. I am a very strong person and felt that I had gotten over it...
Jesika, Earthing/grounding worked for me. I also take several supplements that helped. Magnesium with malic acid, coq10, L- carnitine, d-ribose, b vitamin and a daily vitamin. I was on several pills...
Its not a medicine, but sleeping grounded works for me. I sleep through the night now. Plus, I fall asleep within 5 minutes of lying down and wake feeling well rested....
Earthing helped my neighbor who has lupus. It helped me a great deal with my fibro as well. I earth for an hour a day at the park and sleep grounded at night. I had to work up to sleeping grounded. I...
Earthing has helped me a lot. I have fibro, not lupus but I wanted to respond to your post. Being grounded during the day, while sitting at my desk has done wonders for my fatigue. I also earth for...
It helped me when I was in pain. When I would have a bad flair, I took it 3x a day. I would only get tired after my last dose of the day 7pm, which was fine with me. It would ease the pain, I had no...
Your story sounds so much like mine. I went through many doctors before I found one who was willing to help me. I went from be an energetic happy person to a miserable, sore, tired person. I have had...
I agree with above posters. Not everyone is in the same place. Or in tune with their bodies, or maybe they are just overwhelmed by the idea of completely changing their diet. When I changed my diet,...
Barbara123, As another poster mentioned, going gluten free can be expensive (processed GF specialty foods are expensive). But it doesn't have to be. I am on a very tight budget (single mom with an ex...
The squeaky wheel gets the grease. When I need a call back, I call at 8 am and then every 2 hours. They usually speak with me by the 3rd call....
Earthing changed my life. I know many people haven't heard about it. My doctor gave me a book about it. After earthing for 5 weeks (I earth for an hour a day for the past 5 weeks and just started...
My doctor also suggested gluten free. When I changed my diet, I did notice that my fatigue was less. Another food related suggestion : cut the preservatives. When I stopped eating foods with...
I just wanted to share my experience with EARTHING. After being sick for so long, I tried it and I feel better that I have in years. It seems to simple to work, but I don't even feel like I have...
I just wanted to share my experience with earthing. I have been dealing with fibro for the past 3.5 years. It started after a very violent assault I suffered. I was left with a concussion and lots of...
