Well today was another day at the FFC for treatment. I did not go down last week because of nausea. I was sick and though it was just something going around. We found out it was one of the supplements that I was taking. I stopped taking it and the nausea went away.
We went down on Wednesday and came back today. I had muscle and brain IV's both days. As I have said the muscle treatment is to help the muscles develop new cells and to help with the pain. The brain treatment is to put antioxidants and substance P into the brain. We with Fibromyalgia are found to be low on substance P which helps the brain cells rebuild and talk to each other.

The link above is a one page article put out by the FFC about the problems we with Fibromyalgia have to deal with daily. I like this article and it is clear how disabling this "CRUD" can be for us lucky people.
I am feeling much better as far as pain is concerned. I also feel that my thinking is improving and I don't get tired as much as I used to. Keep watching this blog I think you will see a marvelous change in my health in the next 11 months.
Till next time,
Jerry
