there are so many controversies regarding this subject. Having had been diagnosed over 2 years ago I had tried many things. I tried anti-depressants, I tried exercise, I tried massage therapy, I dieted. the pain still continued.
The only thing I have found that works was a program that I do currently. It incorporates counseling, homeopathy, diet and exercise, and supplements and some medications. It all works together and it is half as much as I was spending before. I am at about a quarter of the pain. The key to it is managing the disease, and its all about balance.

Thank you for letting us know that today is National Fibromyalgia Awareness Day. My husband suffers from fibromyalgia and it has been a struggle to get him diagnosed.

I hope that somethings can be changed and that awareness can really come to our communities!
