Hi Everyone,
I am new to this program, I have Fibro,too, I recently ordered the tapes but knowing that I cant afford them, will be sending them back, but it helped me to recognize why I am having so much depresion, like agoraphobia.I have also been trying to do some research on FM, I just recently a yr ago was diagnosed with it,and since have had to quit my job, had 2 disc removed from my neck, and have had to aplly for disability. I am so excited to find others that have it,Not that I would wish this on my worse enemy, but I am glad to find others to relate on this disease, Its Awful, I hate it so bad, when I cant sleep, Hurt all the time, Cant enjoy life, like I use too, I do beleive the tapes help on agoraphia, and the anxiety, but right now, it is only helping me understand it, I am still very fearful of getting out, by myself, to do anything, gracery shopping, or even to the doctors, I want to go to the doctor, but I am afraid he will tell me there is nothing he can do , or worse he will want to do some more tests. I get so tired of doing tests and it comes back negative,and all the meds. I also hate this brain fog, I couldnt even talk to my lawyer with my mother there, lol, I bet he really thought I was nuts, Now, I have nausea so bad, I cant stand it, and I get so dizzy, I think I am going to dye. Well, if anyone has some input for me, I would just love it. Thanks I hope everyone has a great, great day

My sister has FM and she tried all of the conventional forms of treatment, none of which helped much.

It was only after she saw a naturopathic doctor that she found any relief. She went on a fibromyalgia diet which is basically a hypoglycemia diet, and that has made a real difference. An improper diet will increase insulin levels, force blood sugar down, and bring out fibromyalgia symptoms that include fatigue, irritability, headaches, depression, carb cravings, blurry vision, poor memory, and anxiety. There can also be hypoglycemic symptoms such as feeling faint or a rapid heartbeat. A proper fibromyalgia and hypoglycemia diet will keep insulin levels from rising and keep blood sugar from lowering.

My sister still has FM but the flareups are far less frequent and less severe.
