Hello my fibro worriers. I'm Dave. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2010. I got my SSI/SSDI for it in 2012. Since then I have never had a doctor that even cares . NADA. 2 relationships, gone. Thanks fibromyalgia, love u to. 3 days now broke up. I'm homeless, hurting with no PCP or any care. So I seen the Mayo clinic had a fibro clinic. I called and it looked promising. Even gave me information on housing. Wow. Then today it all crumbled. Turned me Down. I'm in my van as of next Tuesday. No where to turn. I'm 60 next month and just wish it was my last. I have tried many things over the years. Holistic, Reiki. Never had a massage before. Never could afford it. I'm lost here. NW Arkansas sucks for doctors. I'm lost

I highly recommend you read the 4th (latest) edition of "From Fatigue to Fantastic" by Dr. Jacob Teitelbaum and follow his SHINE protocol. Decades ago when most physicians didn't recognize chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia as being real diseases, I found help from a functional medicine/integrated medical doctor who specialized in fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and tick borne diseases. The symptoms of all three are quite similar. She had attended several of Dr. Teitelbaum's workshops and diagnosed and successfully treated me for chronic fatigue using his SHINE protocol and supplements. After feeling like death warmed over for months, my muscle aches disappeared and my energy levels returned to normal. Dr. Teitelbaum had chronic fatigue and had to drop out of medical school as a result. After he got his medical degree, he dedicated himself to helping people with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. He is one of my heroes. His web site, which I hope still has information about his SHINE protocol, is http://www.endfatigue.com. I still order supplements there. Please take care!
