The muscle pain, brain fog, fatigue, sleep issues, pain, muscle aches, muscle and joint stiffness, joint pain, brainfog, fibrofog, cognitive issues, difficulty concentrating!!  All these are symptoms of fibromyalgia and it can be awful as I'm a pain physician who has lived through it.  Today's episode we are going to discuss the background, causes, and the underlying reasons for developing fibromyalgia. And we'll go into the remedies, solutions, treatments, therapies, and supplements that I have tried myself!   While this isn't inclusive, on the pod I discuss: 1. Nutrition - anti-inflammatory diet, gluten, and the power of healthy eating 2. Bodywork - massage, myofascial release, physical therapy, desensitization (patting, rubbing, brushing, vibrating the areas of the body that hurt), and osteopathic manipulation 3. Acupuncture and the benefits for fibromyalgia 4. Dietary supplements and ones that have worked for me. Omega-3, CoQ10 or ubiquinol, Vitamin D, Reishi mushroom, Medicinal mushrooms, SAM-e (S-adenosylmethionine), St. John's wort 5.
