What has done amazing things for me is establishing a relationship with a chiropractor. I'm fortunate that my health plan covers visits. I've been going once/twice a week for several months now and the difference the warm heat/TENS combined with adjustments is just short of my own personal miracle.

For the first time in almost a year, Jess is able to cuddle me in bed without my skin feeling as if I am on fire.

My shoulders and the burning pain across my upper back has eased - I have days like yesterday (after a chiro visit) that I am able to be the workaholic I am without it being such a struggle. I felt "good" - and that has been hard to come by.

I did see a new OTC/homeopathic ad for a fibro treatment. I have it on the list to do some label reading - I can't find a link for it, but I will post it as soon as I find it in the drug store.

Best of luck to you.

Chiropractic maybe I should look into that and see if my plan will cover. Does anybody work a full time job because I would like to work and make some money of my own and not rely on my trust fund so much?? Just wondering
