Unhappy with the drugs you are trying for fibro?

d-ribose has shown improvements in fibro patients. I started this supplement last spring, hoping to improve stamina from my PN issues and muscle pain issues, and I have to say it is working for me! There are studies showing d-ribose benefits patients with fibro.
This is my thread on PN detailing my experience with it.

It is a slow acting supplement, but the gains do come.

A recent study shows that d-ribose powder may also be helpful in recovery promotion in those with illnesses characterized by the ATP depletion (for instance, fibromyalgia and Huntington’s disease). It is assumed that the effectiveness of this substance may be due to the fact that it is a small molecule and easily crosses the blood brain barrier.

Ribose is a 5 carbon sugar (unlike glucose) and does not raise blood sugars when used moderately. It comprises the substance adenosine, which improves sleep, and energy production. I think it is worth looking into for fibro patients.
