I also have Fibro - I have taken 103 topics and conversations to try to make some sense out of all the information. Not sure I have been able to meet my goals. Please see the attached file and I hope you can find something useful.

Impressive. Thanks.
Your Welcome. This document still needs refinement. To check correct spelling, sorting, etc. The comorbidities do complicate the picture in trying to see causation. Also, sorting the meds situation. Pharmaceuticals may be necessary for the relief of symptoms but synthetics may help one thing and then cause other changes in the body system. There is a whole lot of suffering going on. I did not see any real pattern for reasons of how this illness starts, although there are some commonalities.
One theory is that Fibro is due to a virus that stays in the system. I have pulled on article from the National Institute of Health which was interesting. I will also post several articles about antivirals and common substances/herbs. If I cannot add the articles by attaching them to this post, I will follow with posting the individual articles next on a one by one basis. I plan on trying Astragalus for awhile to see if it helps.
Astragalus may be safe when used orally and appropriately. (Doses up to 60 grams daily for up to 4 months have been used without reported adverse effects.) Some possible side effects with oral use include rash, itching, nasal symptoms, or stomach discomfort, but these are uncommon.
