Has anyone tried a Tens Machine for their pain? It helped me a lot in the past, but I wasn’t sure if it was a placebo or if it really worked.…Read More

No I haven’t but I am very interested in getting one. I was recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I also have herniated disk, having back surgery in January. I’ve been reading up about the TENS unit and the benefits that chiropractors have had with thier patients who have fibromyalgia or back problems.

So sorry to hear about the fibromyalgia diagnosis, this might help with that. At least you could add it to your Christmas list.

Hey Lily ! Thanks for sharing the article or product. No I haven’t used the Ten machine. I haven’t really seen or heard of it . For pain I used regular ice pak or blue ice that has been working out for me. Looks interesting to try

Def. for muscle pain, not nerve pain-with Fibro, it vibrates me into a flare. Not for me at all. Give it a shot if you have muscle pain, helped me at PT a bit before the Fibro took over! There was a blue and red light machine I will try to recall what it was-THAT helped me so much more than the TENS.

Found this site that explains it- for me, the blue light hurt at first but they turned it down as low as it would go, then was a good thing… They are crazy pricey but if you can get PT from a “sports medicine” office they are more likely to use and have one. They wrap it with a hot towel to release muscle tension- worked wonders at the time.…Read More

Turmeric, curcumen, tart cherry juice, magnesium, MSM, SAM-e, Bromelain etc -I’ve tried it all over the years but think for intense pain one would need a vat of each to even touch the pain. I will tell you, out of all I think SAM-e helped me the most. The most helpful book I have ever come across, when I was on my ‘gonna solve this naturally’…Read More

It really is a great book, she has since, come out with different editions, but I am unsure how different they really are. The information is amazing organized and clear. Let me know how it goes if you get the book. I am curious to know what the differences are in the newer editions actually.

Interesting read about substituting your opioids for CBD for fibromyalgia pain.

Has this actually worked for anyone? I tried this in cahoots with my doctor, and the amount, frequency and cost I need were all sadly, too much for me. Hopefully we get to the point where insurance covers CBD -sure would be a game changer for so many. Mitchells Medicinals was local to me at the time and was fairly effective.. Full spectrum and…Read More

My mother-in-law is Polish and an excellent cook. She introduced me to the red-colored horseradish at a Thanksgiving dinner to compliment kielbasa and I have loved it as a condiment ever since. But who knew horseradish had all of these extra nutritional benefits? It is time to add another item to my shopping list this week. LOL

Have you found an IBS doctor that “gets you”? It can be so hard to find a physician that understands you and trys to care for you personally.

This is a cool website all about invisible illnesses. And they have a specific page about ableism, it’s a very interesting read if you have time.
