Comments:Dear Dream Host,
I found this site by accident. I was trying to send someone an OPC-3 testimonial. I have been in health care for 15 years. I am a CA.,PTA. My question is: Do any of the people in your support group know about OPC-3 or Isotonix? We have had life changing results with these products in Richmond, VA. My husband sufferd with "Restles Leg Syndrome" for over 20 years. He hasn't had a single nocturnal twitch since September of 2000. RLS is easily treated with OPC-3 a powerful antioxidant that is easily absorbed by the body due in part to it's isotonic properties. We have helped several people with Fibromyalgia. We use Aloe, digestive enzymes, OPC-3, and B-12 all of which are Isotonix brand, to help people with autoimmune problems. Please, you can help these people. Find someone that has OPC-3, it has to be drinkable. French doctors have been using it for 30 years! The American doctors don't know about it because it's not a drug. Do some research, find out what happens when the body absorbs whole molecules of protein that have passed into the intestine un-digested. This causes autoimmune reactions, look it up. What happens to all that protein we eat when we take Tums, Malox, Tagamet, Prilosec etc.,etc.? Think about how close that undigested protein is to our bloodstreams. We can improve the condition of our digestive systems and it's not going to be with a drug that shuts it down while we eat more of the foods that upset it. We are looking at an epidemic of autoimmune diseases. Are you seeing more and more of the people you know come down with autoimmune diseases?
You can delete me if you want, or you can call me/e-mail me.
804-262-7316. My help is free, it's information. What you do with it it is up to you.
Thank you for reading down this far,

Comments:Hi, I am so sorry to hear that you are suffering from fibromyalgia. I also think that sleeping and pain are the worse things,but it is also so discouraging when people don't believe you.
Luckily, I found some people at work that have tried to help and I am getting some help with OPC-3. It is a powder and it is mixed with water and it helps to get oxygen to the parts of the body that are in pain. It gets rid of free radicals in the body.
I also have found some help with magnets. I have just gotten cheap refigerator type magnets in the craft section of Wal-Mart. Some are on rolls like ribbon, others are in sheets. Some are up to 18" long. I have used duct tape to cover them as they are easy to fall apart especially if they get wet. I have nervous legs and the magnets allowed me to get to sleep. And I would pin the larger ones to my shirt to relieve the pain in my back. It feels like one is on the torture rack, the muscles feel so stretched.
OPC-3 is made with plant products. There is pine, bilberry, red wine and a few others that I would need to check the lable to list. There is a fizz when it is mixed in water and it tastes pretty gross, kind of sour, but I just drink it down fast.
But, I have had more energy at work and am functioning in the morning whereas, I could hardly keep awake even when it was time to go to work at 3PM.
Everything else going on with my health was put on hold as I couldn't deal with it.
I have only been trying this for a couple of weeks, but I haven't had to call in sick. Before, I was calling in maybe once or twice a week and I really don't like to be that kind of worker, so unreliable.
Well, hope that you are able to find something that helps you. The magnets don't help everyone, maybe 1/3 of the people who try them. But, they also help bring oxygen to the affected part. To me they rather feel like a heating pad.
I also do scads of crossword puzzles. When I couldn't sleep, I would do the puzzles until I was so relaxed I could sleep. Maybe some kind of meditation or simple thing you can do that will relax and tire you. Now with the OCP-3, I am just going to bed as I am already tired enough to sleep. And I miss doing the puzzles. :( Crazy.

Comments:I have been diagnosed w/fibromyalgia. It has taken many years to finally get a diagnoses that really does hit on my symtoms. I have been working full-time & have really had a hard time with it lately. It's hard to accept that I have to change my life in order to have 'quality' in it, since working full-time has been taking all of my energy. I am now searching for answers to where do I go from here? My employer has been kind enough to give me some time off to "heal" since my last episode. I'm looking for someone to converse with that has fibromyalgia. I'm pretty shy & don't think I'm ready to join a support group in person yet. I do have a good doctor from Va Bch, however, I still don't feel up to par, even though we are going thru different medications. Take care & God Bless....Nancy

Comments:Hi all,

First time here and looking forward to more time here. Have been diagnosed with CFS and Fibromyalgia for about 8 years now. Thought the Fibro had gone into remission year before last then last year had major back surgery, was taken off all meds then had a heart attack, followed up with being laid off in November. Have not found a job yet and the Fibro is back with a huge vengeance this time. All the joints from my waist down, now including my hips are pretty much in full time pain and the muscles are just as bad. Cramps and charlie horses most of the time. First time I've whined about it in some time, but very glad to find this site. I hope to hear from any and all.

Comments:Hi, just thought we would sign your guestbook. Hey, you are more than welcome to join our support groups if you wish. They are fibro_friens4fun@yahoogroups.com and there is one you might want to see that we just started called fibro_journal@yahoogroups.com. This is a place where a group of us are writing a book, a journal. We come together and tell it like it is, and we don't keep our feelings out of this. What we are doing is writing this journal, called ONE DAY AT A TIME in order to enlighten the medical field. There are both positive and negative outputs in it. There are articles on Social Security, the new meds coming out, things from the news media, and most of all, the posts from ourselves. I don not use last names, nor e-mails. Only first names. The author of the book is no myself. It is "fibrofriends" and that is how it will be on the front of the book. "Fibrofriends" is a great place to be. There is a lot of encouragement, a lot of tears, our inane jokes, friends to be made and we really do support each other. As far as the negativism, we have not had that yet. Hope we don't, but know it is out there because most of the doctors we see just will not work with us. Some do, and mine is ignorant.

Anyway, I have had fibro for a long time, I was actually diagnosed with it in 1998, but have had problems being in a wheelchair and wearing braces before that. I am still for the most part in a wheelchair and wearing braces. I get that exhausted tiredness like so many others. I get the burning pain that feels like you have been out in the sun for too long. Up until the last two nights I had not slept in three nights. The doctor started me on methodone and a histamine blocker. My husband helps me a lot and I don't know what I would do without him. Well, that is a little about me and Jim, so hope you can keep us in touch with your site. Again, hope to hear from you in our groups. Feel free to journal, if you wouldn't mind getting published.

Comments:I am a pediatric nursing instructor and I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia last summer. I was teaching at Obici School of Nursing until May when my job was phased out as they are closing the school. I had been attending the pain support group at Obici as I was in that area most of the time. I live in Churchland and this group would be more convenient for me. I am very impressed with this web site and would like to know if you have speakers at every meeting and if so, who is speaking at the 27 July meeting? Thanks.
