Hey, im new

[Amanda51]

Hi, i would like intoduce myself and tell my story.
I just turned 19 on 8/8. I have a boyfriend and we plan on getting married soon. But we are not engaged just yet.
I just got diagnosed with fibromyalgia. i went a year of testing and being misdiagnosed. i counted i saw 25 doctors. finally they diagnosed me with fibro. I was in school and i was working. Now i cant do any of that. its been really hard adjusting. My symptoms have changed since ive started feeling sick. now any pressure on body causes me to go numb, like my legs, and arms. i also lose feeling in face sometimes too. i get massive chest pains, i cant stand for more than 10 mins at a time, i cant drive or walk up the stairs. everyday things are hard and strenous. i need to talk to people who understand what i am going through, this is just really hard to deal with as you all know.

Please allow me to be the first to welcome you the forum. Unfortunately, many of the symptoms that you describe are associated with Fibro and with autoimmune disorders in general. Your story is very common: multiple doctors, huge amounts of testing, misdiagnosis. Fibro is considered to be a diagnosis of exclusion, usually meaning that everything else under the sun is considered first. If you have not already done so, I would strongly consider contacting the Bowen Institute in order to have a QRibB test performed. This teat is very accurate in detecting the presence of the spirochete that causes Lyme’s disease. The symptoms for Lyme’s are nearly identical to Fibromyalgia and may possibly be one of the causative factors.
Fortunately, there are many natural products that may provide some support for people in your situation. One promising new product is called FibroBalance. It was developed specifically with the needs of Fibro sufferers in mind and has received very good reports from people that have used it. Following is a link that describes the results achieved by a number of Fibro sufferers that have used the product: www.fibromyalgia-support.org/fibrobalance-study.html. Overall, they reported a 49% decrease of discomfort in approximately a 2 week period. In addition to this, I would strongly suggest working with a chiropractor or naturopath that has experience with Fibromyalgia treatment. Following are some supplements that you should discuss with him or her:

• Oxygenator: This liquid dissolved in distilled water can help to oxygenate tissue and help maintain normal inflammation levels. It can also support the immune system.
• Cleansing: An excellent way to jump-start any health program is by cleansing. A 7-day colon cleanse with Oxy-Powder, followed by a liver/gallbladder flush, and finished with a parasite cleanse can greatly aid the body in removing toxins, opening the channels of elimination and detoxification, and reducing the number of energy-draining parasites. An excellent protocol can be found at /www.ghchealth.com/liver-and-gallbladder-flush.html.
• NutraCool™: This topical lotion can be used anywhere that pain is present. It is completely natural and provides nutrients to help support normal pain levels.
• Terminator II- This “zapper” is very useful in helping to eliminate parasites and in assisting detoxification.
• Oregano Oil- This can be put into a capsule and taken with food a couple of times per day. Research indicates that Oregano Oil has very strong pain management properties externally and, for many, internally as well.
• It is also best to eliminate coffee, alcohol, white flour, white sugar, and micro-waved foods.

Please keep in mind that most supplements should be used for at least 3-6 months before evaluating their effectiveness.
