"The water is wide, I can't cross over. And neither have I, the wings to fly, give me a boat, that can carry two. And both shall cross, my love and I."
More than 10 years after I was first diagnosed with RA, I can now look back and say,"I survived it all". It has been a long journey

What works for my FIBROMYALGIA.. so far?
Things that make me feel good?
1) Avoid beef and red meat like hell
2)MASSAGE, especially Tui Na or acupressure
3)Alexander Technique lessons and "practice" at home
4)Stretching!
5) sleep
6) Takes lots of fish and omega 3 oils and also antioxidants when it flares
7)Ginseng and Gingko (for my brain fogs and speech slurs)
8)Muscle rubs
9) Hot bath!
10) NSAIDS...
Amitriptyline ease a lot of the pains, but I am so fatigued and knock out by it that I will end up able to do nothing but sleeping. I try to stay away from it.
