What the HELL do you know.
Yer a whimpy coward to pass judgement like that.

Answer 1

my mother had it.
she used heating pads, icy/hot often
she also got a self massager, and they gave her a shot to inject herself with when the pain got too bad

Answer 2

I suffered from this disease for three years, I'm one of the few people on the planet that has recovered from it. I don't claim to have the answers for everyone, I think there are many different things which could cause this. The most popular pathological reasons are:

1) Human growth hormone deficiency, caused by the inability to achieve a delta sleep state.

2) Leaky gut syndrome or ciliac disease. Tiny perforations in the small intestines allow undigested food particles to enter the blood stream, causing an autoimmune disease.

3) Amalgam filings in your teeth release mercury into the brain and other parts of the body, can contribute to a candida imbalance in the intestines.

4) Psychosomatic syndrome caused by a severe neurosis.

5) Pancreatitis. The pancreas secretes digestive enzymes into the small intestine.

6) Anything that causes intestinal flora to be comprimised e.g. Anti-Biotics.

7) Myofascial pain syndrome.

8) Hypoglycemia

I believe this list could go on and on forever.

The answer for me personally is number 4. It's the most difficult to accept because people who don't understand exactly what a neurosis is, will interpret the diagnosis as "It's all in your head", and that's just unacceptable when you know, the pain is very real.

Treatment is not easy. My cure came to me in the form of a natural bilogical catharsis. A miracle of sorts. I have not ruled out the other possibilities because I was treating all them as well. I even have considered that it was a combination of several different conditions. My reason for choosing #4 is because the cure came on so fast.
If you would like the details I will email them to you. I no longer post the solution on this site because of strong criticism.

Answer 3

Fibromyalgia (FM or FMS) is a chronic syndrome (constellation of signs and symptoms) characterized by diffuse or specific muscle, joint, or bone pain, fatigue, and a wide range of other symptoms. It is not contagious, and recent studies suggest that people with fibromyalgia may be genetically predisposed.[1] It affects more females than males, with a ratio of 9:1 by ACR (American College of Rheumatology) criteria.[2] Fibromyalgia is seen in 3% to 6% of the general population. Recently there has been an increase in the number of diagnoses, which is assumed to be associated with better identification of the disorder. It is most commonly diagnosed in individuals between the ages of 20 and 50, though onset can occur in childhood.

The disease is not directly life-threatening. The degree of symptoms may vary greatly from day to day with periods of flares (severe worsening of symptoms) or remission; however, the syndrome is generally perceived as non-progressive.[3

Answer 4

Yes for 15-17 years. Diagnosis difficult. There are 18 trigger points from base of skull (neck) to lower back. Arthritis strength tylenole and if under Dr.'s care Ultram, or Loraceeet and an anitdeperssant helps tremendously like Lexapro. Muscle relaxer like soma can helpInsomnia is a big symtom and ambien helps there too. Lexapro and ambien helpd me more than anything

Answer 5

This is a disease that used to be ignored by doctors and passed off as being over-tired or stressed, or simply a mental issue. But it's very real. I don't have it, but it sounds horrible. To my knowledge there arent any medications that cure the disease, but some help with the muscle pain. Antidepressants are sometimes used to help. (And it doesn't mean it's "in your head", they just sometimes help to block the pain signals and improve sleep.)

Answer 6

Mostly unexplained pain anywhere/everywhere. My husband has it along with rheumatoid arthritis. It seems to be triggered by stress, deal with the stress in a positive way. Anti inflammitory drugs like Aleve/Naprosyn help the most for him.

Answer 7

yes and it's awful. You ache like you have the flu all the time, and there are alot of other conditions associated with it like irritable bowel, anemia, etc. Post this in the health section as well, and I'm sure you'll get alot of responses. Good luck.

Answer 8

I had it bad. From tender soft tissue in my upper body, insomnia, depression, IBS, mood swings, everything! I found taking MSM and glucosamine to help, in fact, my symptoms have pretty much disappeared.
