Well this is an interesting little quiz this time as it explores alternative therapies and their uses towards helping to fight the fibro monsters. It's a toughie but well worth having a go as it's quite educational too
I scored 83% 10/12 which I'm impressed at as a couple of them I found quite tough!!
Of course none of this should override the advice of your GP and if thinking about alternative therapies it is essential to speak to your GP first. I am also not a medical professional just sharing some info with my fibro friends

Oooeerr I got the lot right but very much guess work methinks, nearly put St. John's wort , but then rethought a document I'd read about SaMe and it's efficacy should add it must be cleared with your doctor if you are on anti-depressants of any kind.

Hi there! Yes I know,I haven't been on here for a while.Naughty naughty haribo......slaps hands.......ouch that hurt lol Well Iam back now in fighting spirit and way better physically and mentally than I was xxx
Hi bluebell,I have been on a mission to improve my health and fitness Hun and along the way my fibro and depression has also improved.So I've been skiving off to the gym all the time and Iam a very much improved haribo indeed But alas,Iam making a concerted effort now not to abandon my fluffie duties lol
I have Reiki/Massage and swallow Omega Fish Oil Capsules and St Johns Wort..I no longer use pharmaceuticals, still have pain but my "COMMANDO" Head deals with that!!"
Reiki is simple, google it!! it uses the goodness of the earth. a good reiki practitioner will use both Reiki and Massage. Luckily for me my lady is a Reiki Master and Holistic Healer. So its all good. Find a REPUTABLE PRACTITIONER in your area, honestly well worth it!!
I shall speak to GP and hydro/physiotherapist first but sounds interesting. I just have never asked anyone before what it was like who has tried it......... including mum-in-law!!
Hi everyone just got home after a long journey up the M6. I am a firm believer in Reiki I have found it very useful and relaxing just what we need. The first couple of times it reduced me to tears but then it was marvelous. xgins
Desperation Pain and the whole Pharmaceutical Industry became a major issue. 1morning i woke up and looked in the mirror I was yellow(not Jaundice) but the effects of 80mg of morphine a day and then the Devil Drug Duloxetine60mg. I decided there and then, the medics did not care whether I lived or Died. Changed Doctors and was fortunate to find one who could see I wanted change.I am here happy content but know i will never be "PainFree"
