Hi lisacruz4,
I am sorry to hear that you were diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. I have both MG and Fibromyalgia also. I was diagnosed with Fibro almost 2 years ago. Several things worked for me and really helped alleviate my fibro pain:
First I found out that my Vitamin D was extremely low and began taking Vitamin D supplements (have your doctor test for your vitamin D levels before you begin taking the supplements).
Second, I also began taking vitamin B12 supplements.
Thirdly and what I believe helped me the most was that I found out my food and chemical sensitivities through testing from a Nutritionist that I found locally in my city. She was truly a godsend because once I was able to elliminate the food that my body was sensitive to, my fibro pain decreased tremendously. It takes time and dedication but I just had to try it because the Fibro pain was becoming unbearable. Some people find it hard to believe that changing your diet can produce long lasting results but I can only say that it worked for me. It wasn't the only thing that helped ease my Fibro pain but it did play a part. We are all individuals and so I never claim that what I did will absolutely work for someone else. I can only try to help others as I was helped.
I can send you her information by private message if you want. She also has a website that you can look at and I can give that to you as well.
Gentle Hugs,
Shari
