FIBROMYALGIA_____ISSUES! FOR THOSE OF US WHO HAVE FIBROMYALGIA; WE FEEL AT TIMES LIKE WE ARE;__IN OUTER SPACE; WITH THE LACK OF KNOWLEDGE THAT SEEMS TO EXIST; OVER THIS LONG TIME "STANDING" DISEASE.
SO USING THIS "SPACE BACKGROUND, SEEMED APPROPRIATE.
FIBROMYALGIA IS NOT;__A NEW DISEASE; IT HAS BEEN AROUND FOR CENTURIES; UNDER OTHER GENERIC NAMES; AND SOMETIMES; JUST CALLED "A MALADY", FOR LACK OF A BETTER TERM, OR KNOWN CAUSE.

WE ARE NOT FOLLOWING THE PATTERN OF MANY SITES ON FIBRO; THAT GIVE NO REAL EMPHASIS ON ADDRESSING THE ROOT CAUSES OF FMS, THEREBY HELPING PEOPLE OVERCOME THIS AWFUL DISEASE.
IT IS A FACT; MEDICINE IS NOT THE ANSWER; AS THAT ONLY TREATS THE "SYMPTOMS"; NOT THE UNDERLYING CONTRIBUTING FACTORS. WE HAVE READ COUNTLESS ARTICLES; THAT STATE PEOPLE HAVE BEATEN THIS SUFFERING; AND INTEND TO SHOW YOU; THAT FIBRO SYMPTOMS CAN BE VASTLY IMPROVED: AND FOR SOME; THESE SYMPTOMS CAN BE OVERCOME.

WE BELIEVE AS OTHERS DO; THAT THE RIGHT ATTITUDE AND MINDSET TOWARDS THIS DISEASE; STARTS WITH THE BELIEF THAT; YOU CAN; GET BETTER.
TO LEAVE EVERYTHING UP TO THE MEDICAL SOCIETY IS A MISTAKE. ONE HAS TO TAKE CONTROL OF HIS OWN LIFE AND HIS OWN HEALTH; IF HE OR SHE WANTS TO GAIN IMPROVEMENT.

ALTHOUGH NOT RECOGNISED; IT SEEMS ON SO MANY FIBROMYALGIA SITES AND MESSAGE BOARDS, THERE IS A COMMON IDEOLOGY OR SURRENDER TO MEDICINE AND THIS INSIDIOUS INVASION OF SYMPTOMS.

WE HAVE DECIDED TO JOIN OTHERS IN THEIR FIGHT TO GAIN BACK THEIR HEALTH, AND PERSUE A PLAN TO HELP US GET OUT OF THIS MESS (IN A NATURAL WAY). WE BELIEVE WE CAN WIN. AND WE BELIEVE YOU CAN TOO. SO READ ON AND WE WILL ADD TO THESE LINKS AND PAGES AS WE CAN.
MAYBE OUR THINKING HERE IS DIFFERENT THAN SOME PEOPLE; BUT BEAR WITH US A LITTLE WHILE AND HEAR US OUT. WHAT CAN IT HURT? RIGHT? IT IS NOT THAT THIS INFO MAKES ME HAPPY; I AM A JUNK FOOD ADDICT AND I LOVE AN EASY GOING LIFESTYLE. BUT WE HAVE DISCOVERED:
THERE IS NOT ONE SHRED OF EVIDENCE THAT PROVES THAT MEDICINE OF ANY KIND IS GOOD FOR OUR HEALTH; OUR KIDNEYS AND LIVER. QUITE TO THE CONTRARY; MUCH EXISTS THAT PROVES THE OPPOSITE; AND IN FACT IS CAUSING US TO BECOME MORE ILL; DUE TO THE TOXIN BUILDUP; IN OUR BODY.

PHARMACEUTICALS ARE MAKING A KILLING OFF FROM AMERICAN PEOPLE;AND THE DOCTORS RECEIVE A "KICKBACK" IN MANY INSTANCES; ON THE MEDS THEY PRESCRIBE. YET THE AMERICAN PEOPLE CONTINUE TO GET SICKER; EACH YEAR. SOMETHING LIKE 15% (A MORE HONEST FIGURE) OF THE GOOD OL USA IS ON TRANQUILIZERS OR ANTIDEPRESSANTS. TONS MORE ON HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE MEDS; AND DIABETICS ARE RAMPANT. COUNTING ALL THE OTHER LIFE THREATENING DISEASE AND AILMENTS; (DESPITE THE RESEARCH AND "MEDICAL WONDERS") AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE EXTREMELY UNHEALTHY!
AND JUST FOR THE RECORD, FIBROMYALGIA IS NOT A NEW DISEASE. IT HAS BEEN AROUND FOR CENTURIES ONLY UNDER OTHER NAMES, AND SOME "GENERIC" TITLES. EARLY CENTURIES JUST CALLED IT A MALADY; BUT THE SYMPTOMS WERE THE SAME.

IN ANY CASE, THIS COUNTRY FOR ALL ITS SCIENCE; DISCOVERIES AND INFORMATION AGE LABELS; HAS FALLEN PREY TO EVERY DISEASE ON EARTH; AND IT CAN BE PROVEN THAT THE RISE IN DISEASE AND INFIRMITIES; HAS ESCALATED TREMENDOUSLY IN THE LAST 2 CENTURIES. BEFORE THAT TIME; THERE WERE PLAGUES AND THE MUNDANE COMMON COLDS; PNEUMONIA AND ILLNESSES, BUT NOT THE WIDE ARRAY OF NEW DISEASE THAT HAS COME UPON PLANET EARTH IN THESE RECENT TIMES. PEOPLE CAN BLAME IT ON MANY FACTORS, TRAVEL, POPULATION EXPLOSION WHATEVER, BUT; THE FACTS REMAN CLEAR. ******ONCE THIS SOCIETY TURNED TO; FAST FOODS, AND HIGH BREAD; SUGAR AND CARBOHYDRATE INTAKES; WE GOT SICKER THAN EVER, AND ALL TYPES OF UNEXPLAINED ILLNESSES EVOLVED. WHATEVER THE DISEASE; OR MALFORMATION OF THE BODY; ONE FACTOR REMAINS STABLE____ THE FOOD INTAKE ISSUE .

ALL DISEASES BEFORE OUR TIME, SUCH AS RICKETS; SCURVY; AND ALL WERE ASSOCIATED WITH LACK OF FOOD AND NUTRIENTS, AND CLEANLINESS. THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES; LACKING IN FOOD HAD TREMENDOUS OUTBREAKS OF DISEASE, AND HEALTH PROBLEMS. WE FOR QUITE A TIME WERE. BASICALLY HEALTHY EXCEPT FOR POLIO TILL THE VACCINES CAME ALONG. EXCEPT FOR BACTERIAL INFECTIONS; POOR NUTRITION SEEMS TO LIE AT EVERY DOOR OF THESE DISEASES AND INFIRMITIES. (AGAIN THESE INFECTIONS MANY TIMES ARE DUE TO ___LACK OF HEALTHY IMMUNE SYSTEMS)

WHEN THE BRAIN FUNCTIONS ABNORMALLY; THE CELLS ARE UNHEALTHY AND OR ABNORMAL; DUE TO; DISEASE; AND STARVATION OF NECESSARY VITAMINS AND TRACE MINERALS. BAD TEETH? SAME PROBLEM; LACK OF CALCIUM INTAKE. BONES; AND OTHER BODY CELLS; MUSCLES AND NERVES HAVE TO HAVE NUTRIENTS TO SURVIVE; AND FUNCTION PROPERLY. OTHERWISE GROWTHS; AND ABNORMALITIES APPEAR.

EARLY UPBRINGING OF HEALTHY NUTRITIONAL HABITS ARE NECESSARY TO CAUSE PEOPLE TO BE HEALTHY FROM THE EARLY YEARS FORWARD. BUT IN THE LAST CENTURIES; OUR HABITS HAVE CHANGED. AND GOOD HEALTHY STRUCTURE HAS BEEN FORGOTTEN. TO TOP IT OFF; OUR FOOD CHAIN NUTRIENTS HAVE BEEN DEPLETED BY FAST GROWTH; IMPROPER ROTATION OF CROPS; USE OF PESTICIDES; AND USE OF HYBRID PLANTS.

THIS SHOWS WHEN LOOKED AT FROM A WELL ROUNDED VIEW AND CONSIDERATION; THAT; IT IS TRUE! A GOOD PART OF OUR HEALTH PROBLEMS ARE FOOD RELATED. WHITE FLOUR IS UTILIZED FOR EVERYTHING TODAY; YET ADDS NO VALUE TO OUR DIET. SUGAR INTAKE IS AT ALL TIME HIGH. AGAIN; NO VALUE TO OUR HEALTH AND WELL BEING. (not to mention the additives and preservatives)

WE MUST CONSIDER; MALFORMATION OF CELLS; OF ANY KIND; HAD A BEGINNING; THEY ARE DUE TO BASIC CHANGES IN THE STRUCTURE OF THE CELLS. LACK OF NUTRIENTS ARE AT THE HEART OF THE ISSUE. DISEASE STARTS CHANGES IN THE CELLS; AND STARVATION AS PROVEN BY THE 3RD WORLD COUNTRIES, CAUSES DISEASE. IT IS NOT A DIFFICULT ISSUE; REALLY.

LIKE IT OR NOT; THIS NATIONS PEOPLE ARE "STARVING" FOR NUTRIENTS. ONE CANNOT BLAME STRESS AND OTHER MENTAL FACTORS; FOR BODILY REJECTION OF NUTRIENT INTAKE. THE COMMON SENSE LINK IS NOT THERE. STRESS HAS BEEN A PART OF DAILY LIFE SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME. TALK ABOUT STRESS; CAN YOU IMAGINE HAVING A DINOSAUR CHASE DOWN YOU AND YOUR BREAKFAST? MALNUTRITION IS A DIRECT RESULT OF MONTHS OF THE LACK OF WELL BALANCED WHOLE FOODS; THAT LEADS TO DISEASE. (disease again disallowing the body to absorb the much needed vitamins and minerals; caused by years of inadequate diet)

(just as a side note, the ideal plan for the new world order was to bring all nations down to 3rd world status; if you doubt this; read Al Gores book__"Reinventing America")
IF IN FACT THIS IS TRUE; AND IT MOST CERTAINLY HAS BEEN PROVEN; (EVEN BY THE GOVERNMENTS OWN ADMISSSION OF HEALTH PROBLEMS CAUSED BY POOR NUTRITION); THEN WE HAVE BEEN HAD.

WAKE UP AMERICA; AND LETS GET OFF THE TREADMILL OF INSTANT REPLAY AND REPETITIVE TALK. IF WE WANT OUR HEALTH BACK; THEN IT LOOKS LIKE WE WILL HAVE TO CHANGE OUR DIET; AND HEALTH HABITS. IT TOOKS YEARS TO GET THIS WAY; IT WILL TAKE MUCH TIME TO REBUILD OUR IMMUNE SYSTEM

REMEMBER FIBROMYALGIA IS AN AUTOIMMUNE SYSTEM DISEASE.

CHANGE YOUR THINKING

CHANGING THOUGHTS AND OUR OUTLOOK ON LIFE_____ WITH ANY ILLNESS, OUR MENTAL ATTITUDE AND OUTLOOK PLAYS A GREAT PART OF OUR RECOVERY. HOW WE THINK; AND WHAT WE 'DWELL ON' WILL HAVE A GREAT AFFECT ON OUR PHYSICAL ABILITY TO OVERCOME.

I SPENT MANY YEARS IN COUNSELING; AND WITH EVERY CASE; REAGARDLESS OF THE ISSUES OR PROBLEMS; THE PEOPLE TRYING TO DEAL WITH THEIR DIFFICULTIES ONLY SUCCEEDED WHEN; THEY HAD A COMMITMENT AND DETERMINATION TO RISE ABOVE THE CIRCUMSTANCES; AND BE WHAT IS TYPICALLY CALLED SURVIVORS.

EVEN CANCER PATIENTS AND OTHERS WITH TERMINAL ILLNESSES HAVE BEEN ABLE TO LIVE MUCH LONGER; AND SURVIVE WELL PAST THE DIAGNOSIS TIMES GIVEN; SIMPLY DUE TO A 'WILL TO LIVE' AND DETERMINATION TO GET PAST THE DESTRUCTIVE AILMENT.
FOR MANY; THE QUALITY OF LIFE WAS MUCH MORE THE QUESTION; THAN THE TIME FACTOR.
PERSONALLY I WITNESSED A CLOSE FAMILY MEMBER FIGHT WITH PANCREATIC CANCER (uncurable) LONGER THAN EXPECTED; AND SHE DID IT OUT OF SHEER DETERMINATION TO LIVE TO THE FULLEST DURING THE TIME SHE HAD LEFT; IN SPITE OF THE PAIN AND SICKNESS.

IT IS NEVER EASY FOR ANOTHER TO SUGGEST THAT WE NEED TO 'BUCKLE DOWN'; GET TOUGH WITH OURSELVES; AND DO THE NECESSARY WORK REQUIRED TO SEE SOME VALUED IMPROVEMENT. YET WE MUST; AND AS A PATIENT SUFFERING WITH FIBRO, CFS AND RELATED SYMPTOMS I AM DETERMINED TO BE AN EXAMPLE OF GRIT AND FORTITUDE; AND DO THE NECESSARY CHANGES; TO IMPROVE MY LIFE.

AS THE SAYING GOES; "I AM SICK AND TIRED. OF BEING SICK AND TIRED". THIS HAS TO STOP. AND THE SOONER; THE BETTER.
NO ONE IS SAYING IT WILL BE EASY; OR DESIRABLE. YET I FEEL THE RESULTS WILL BE WORTH THE EFFORT AND THE STRENGTH PUT FORTH TO DO IT.

I FULLY INTEND TO DOCUMENT ON-LINE THE RESULTS OF THIS CHANGE OF DIET, AND REGIMEN; IN THE HOPES; THAT FOR OTHERS; SOMETHING WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED.
THE MEDICAL SOCIETY HAS NO ANSWERS FOR THIS HORRIBLE DISEASE CALLED FIBROMYALGIA. NOTHING HAS BEEN DOCUMENTED TO BE A COMPLETE CURE FOR THIS DESTROYER OF LIFE AND FAMILY. AND A 'DESTROYER' IT IS!
SO FIRST OF ALL I HAVE DETERMINED; ALONG WITH MY FAMILY; TO DO ALL I CAN AND TO FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THE DIET AND EXERCISE AND ANY OTHER FORMULA; UNTIL WE EITHER SEE SUCCESS; OR IT IS PROVEN TO BE__FUTILE.

I AM DETERMINED TO "FOREGO THE NEGATIVE APPROACH" AND SAY WITH UTMOST BELIEF; I WILL SUCCEED. WHETHER TO SOME DEGREE; THERE IS IMPROVEMENT; IN HEALTH; OR FULL RECOVERY FROM THIS INCIDIOUS DISEASE REMAINS TO BE SEEN; BUT IN EITHER CASE; DETERMINATION AND COMMITMENT IS THE KEY FACTOR.

IT IS PAINFULLY CLEAR; SOME WILL HAVE NEGATIVE FEELINGS TOWARD OUR GOAL. BUT THAT IS TO BE EXPECTED; AND WILL NOT DETER OUR HOPE AND OUR WORK AT HAND. AND YES; IT WILL BE WORK!
WE DO HOPE SOME WILL STAND IN BACK OF OUR EFFORT AND JOIN IN OUR DETERMINATION AND COMMITMENT TO TAKE HOLD OF OUR OWN HEALTH; AND RECOVERY SYSTEMS. WE CAN ONLY FEEL BETTER EMOTIONALLY; AND HAVE A POSITIVE OUTLOOK; AS A RESULT OF JOINT EFFORT AND SUPPORT FOR ONE ANOTHER. WE SAY___FULL SPEED AHEAD; AND "D--- THE TORPEDOES"; WE ARE GOING ON; AND WILL SUCCEED; ONE STEP AT A TIME.

BLESSINGS TO YOU ALL WHO JOIN WITH US.
