I suggest you see a Field Control Therapist in your area. I know of one who is training me here in Canada who lives in the UK (ireland). The therapy will give you the best results. Work however, is needed on your part: a change in diet (candida diet) and abstinence for a couple of days from electromagnetics in the home during treatments.

...I too was diagnosed with FM over 13 years ago and the pain and overall feeling was not good. As I had experienced 11 surgical interventions for TB and Crohns I blamed everything on that. However on retiring to Crete in 2004 I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in2005. My treatment plan has improved after learning so much from books and people on this forum.

Initially I was on T4 but the FT3 remained at the bottom of the range for 7 years and so T3 was introduced. Since last October I am on just T3. Fibro pain - well I only notice it when I do too much or have a cold or something. No longer does it feel as if I am carrying sacks of coal on my shoulders !

Bone pain and muscles pain can be helped by taking D3. Have you been tested for VitD along with corrected Calcium ? It can make a big difference. I was taking 5000 IU's in the winter which I have now reduced to 5000 as it's hot and sunny.

It was so bad in my 40's that I gave up working for others and had my own business - so I could creep away in the afternoons, crawl home and sleep....so debilitating.

I'm now much stronger and enjoy an active life. Read as much as you can on this forum and ask lots of questions. Check out Shaws in the Directory as she has excellent links to Dr Lowe and his website. His site is in probate but shaws has a way in ! He treated FM as a Metabolic Illness and linked in the Thyroid.

Good luck - and hopefully you will soon be well...........
