Fibromyalgia Treatments and All-Natural Remedies

Mike B Cooley asked:




Patients presented with fibromyalgia and looking for treatment of fibromyalgia may experience fear, doubt, disappointment, and lowering of self-image concomitant with many tests, treatments, and therapies they have tried. It is important that they find control over the probable effects of this disorder to different aspects of life. Control doesn’t need to happen in all the affected areas in life. Finding that one explicit area to which you’ll find strength and contentment is sufficient to raise pride. One fibromyalgia coping methodology is choosing engaging activities which are not considered your common routines, those that are totally not the same from your actions in the past, and those that aren’t connected to your job. Remember that patients, even with this disorder, look well and normal. If it’s required, bring someone with you every time you visit your GP or therapist.

Listen and learn fibromyalgia coping techniques from your doctors. You can suggest other modalities of treatment or show an article about a treatment you want to consider. Through these, you can show respect, as well as appreciation, on his/her viewpoint.

the difficulty with fibromyalgia is protracted and occasionally, excruciating pain. Most doctors don’t give pain-killers to patients as long as pain is self-manageable. This is because of the possible dependance or obsession that can arise towards the use of drug.

There are pharmacologic and non pharmacologic managements available. Occasionally, a combination of two or more is effective. However [*COMMA] each has its own limitations. Keep in mind that some type of treatment that can be effective on others may not be as effective to you and that if one treatment fails, you can try another one.

The lingering nature and limitations of the treatment of fibromyalgia make it difficult for a patient to make conform to changes that lead to a more delightful life. Bear in mind that although one’s physical self may be limited by a disease, life isn’t absolutely disabled. It’s important to learn the process of accepting your constraints and to use those to something that will make you feel snug and satisfied.

Prescription Drugs Kill More Floridians Then Illegal Drugs


For the first time in history in the State of Florida, more people died from overdoses of prescription drugs than from illegal drugs.  This statistic reported in the  June 8, 2002 St. Petersburg Times came from a report of the 24 medical examiners in Florida for the year 2001.  The article noted that there were 939 cases where lethal levels of prescription painkillers such as OxyContin, methadone and Vicodin, or benzodiazepine drugs such as Xanax or Valium were found. The 939 cases in 2001 more than tripled the 284 cases in 2000.

Jim McDonough the Florida drug czar said the rise in prescription drug deaths shows a need for better monitoring of prescription narcotics.  However this idea was rejected this year by the Florida Legislature.  McDonough, director of the governor’s Office of Drug Control, said the abuse of oxycodone, the main ingredient in OxyContin and numerous other painkillers, continues to be worrisome.  He commented, "It’s a drug abuse that came out of no place. There was an epidemic growth."

The article reported that Florida deaths related to oxycodone and its chemical cousin, hydrocodone, rose 45 percent in 2001 compared with 2000. They did note that after doctors and the public became aware of the growing death toll, those deaths dropped 14 percent during the last six months of 2001.  The total number of prescription related drug overdose deaths in Florida for 2001 was 939 compared to 714 deaths due to illegal drugs in the same time frame.

“It has been a long time coming, but the State of Florida has recently enacted a program to monitor the use of prescription narcotics,” explained Dr. Steven Read, Clinic Director of Ortega Chiropractic Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. “I find too many of my patients have been using pain-killers for an extended time, before they get to my office,” he added.
