FIBROMYALGIA
QUESTION: I have fibromyalgia and am interested in finding out if there is any
herbal treatment that can help with this disease. As of now dr's just want to give me more pills and yet I am not feeling
any better. I would appreciate any information you may be able to supply me with.
ANSWER: FM is a very complicated issue, I would really like to help but without a lot more information this is all I can
offer.
I have used the following herbal approach for FM in the past which a friend of mine says has helped him greatly. If
you decide to try it give it a minimum 4-6 weeks to see an effect. If it works for you, I would stay on it for a minimum of
6 months.

The second part of the equation is to remove as much stress as possible from your daily life, or find an effective
means to deal with it; for many this means unplugging themselves from today fast paced and high stress lifestyle.
