Well another visit with my doctor. Things are going great and I am really encouraged. I have been able to get out and really have some fun. I got on a 4 wheeler for the first time since 1994 and it felt great. My remission has continued and if I don’t do stupid things I continue to enjoy not being in pain.
My doctor tells me that I will be off the chelation and most of the supplements by the end of this year. I will take some supplements to help maintain my remission. But won’t need to see the Fibro and Fatigue Center Doctor unless I have a relapse. I will do everything in my power to prevent a relapse. Life is so much better when you aren’t in pain.
I had to see my dentist for a couple of broken teeth. A few years ago my teeth all fell apart in about six months. Back then we didn’t know that fibro/cfs does not allow your body to use calcium correctly. Most of my upper teeth have been caped with porcelain caps. Now we are starting on the bottom. The VA pays for my teeth because they are effected by my fibro which is service connected. This is not a fun process but one that is necessary. I also have to have my spine checked every two years, because I have Osteoporosis from the fm.
Just some things to watch out for if you have FM/CFIDS. We are closer to having a website set-up to support people medically with chronic conditions that want to get better. We are just waiting on the final steps.
Till next time God Bless…

P.S.: We have not sold the house so I guess that means we will be here for a while. But God has his timing and we will wait on him. In the meantime I can get my teeth fixed and finish my treatments at the Fibro & Fatigue Center.
