Default For Ellena....little blue bottle

I think my dr set me up... When I went into his office he was "talking" to someone on the phone and just as I got to his desk the lady on the line said it would help fibromyalgia. Just as I walk in...he's on the phone and very conveniently the conversation (plus she talks loud enough for me to hear) is on fibromyalgia. Well, I took the little bottle (l0 ml) and followed his directions. (which weren't the directions on the bottle at all). He said he'd call me in five days to see how I was doing and to keep track of my pain etc.
To make a long story short....it's been five WEEKS and he hasn't called yet.
I was really hoping that this would work. It's called Micro Min and Energque
Nutrition makes it. Its a mixture of: zinc, manganese, copper, chromium, selenium, cobalt and methyl paraben. You take it sublingually for several days. Most of the ingredients above are in my multi-vitamin that I take so I'm not quite sure why he even did this. He is an acupuncturist and chiropractor so he did have time to call but just forgot. I can't take Rx's due to side effects so am back to the drawing board.

sad to say, but many chiro's are into multi level marketing. sounds like he was pushing a product just for profit.

KatieG, Thanks for letting me know. I'm on super high doses of vitamin D prescribed by my rheumatologist and when I next see him, I'll ask him about this.
Curious, I know what you mean. I used to see a good chiro and I was very surprised to find him pushing miracle cures, it was sad, really sad.
