‘morning guys! I am enjoying all of the forum chats and learning so much. You are all so generous in sharing ideas and encouragement and I have become addicted to your site. It’s a morning ritual now and I appreciate all the suggestions. I am transitioning from eating/drinking just about everything and taking medications to vegan then raw and off prescription meds. I know my journey will be long, but I have been in pain for so long and have tried everything suggested by conventional medicine and decided ENOUGH!! Fortunately, I have found an awesome massage therapist who also practices Reiki. Fibromyalgia pain is relentless. But I have a soaring spirit and refuse to let his thing define me. I am keeping a journal of my progress and I am only one week into my new, exciting lifestyle and already have more energy. My husband sees it, too and he willingly eats and drinks all my new recipes. Thanks a million to all of you for your advice and suggestions!!
Does anyone else out there have fibromyalgia? Maybe we can share our progress with each other?
Blessings, Ginny aka BunnyGirl

Hello! I do not have fibromyalgia myself but my greatest friend in all the world does so I’ll be interested to know how this turns out for you, maybe I can convert her! Ha!
I will be happy to share my experiences with you. Even if you don’t have FMS yourself, if you know someone that does have it, you know all too well what a rotten deal it is. I will keep you posted! If she wants to email me directly, that’s cool too. Let me know! ps I read your profile—I guess I am a “flexitarian”myself. Or maybe I am mostly a “whatevergoesinmymouthatarian” and I am desperately seeking to stop that behavior!! If this works for me, I’ll be converting EVERY fibro on the planet. Keep a good thought!
Hi BunnyGirl (Ginny), I have suffered with Fibromyalgia for the last 20 years. I have been on every medication that they use for FMS. On May 28th I was told the current drug that I had been on for over a year was causing a lung disease…so I decided to take matters into my own hands (with the help of the Man upstairs). I stopped all meds, eliminated all major food categories that trigger FMS (dairy, meat, processed foods, flour, etc.)and just begun eating fruits, veggies, nuts & seeds. Now I’m in my 7th day of a MC and I can say for the first time in all these years I am almost completely out of pain!!! I do not intend to ever go back to my old lifestyle and eating habits. The “raw” is the only way to live. With this forum, I am learning so much about raw eating. I just joined this group and not very good about posting on line, but when you mentioned the horrible word Fibro…my soul understood exactly what you are going through and I had to write. The best thing to do, is stop mixing your foods and just go for it – completely raw. You will not regret making the change – in fact your body will be so grateful. I am taking 30 minute walks daily – the first time in so many years that I can walk without pain. Good luck and please feel free to write me. Hugs & Blessings, Kathleen
My mom was having fibromyalgia issues, but refuses to resort to as little as vegetarianism. She’s been buying rainforest herbs lately. The power of herbs is insane!
Hi, I was wondering how you all were diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I have all the symptoms and my doctor has run all the tests to rule everything else out yet refuses to call it fibromyalgia. I was 95% raw last year for about 8 months until we went on a 2 week vacation. It was slowly downhill back to sad from there. While totally raw most of my symptoms were tolerable to gone completely plus I had lots of energy. I have been totally raw again for about 3 weeks now with only 1 oopsy (donuts and coffee). However, even though my energy has returned I am still experiencing a lot of symptoms. My physical therapist insists that I have arthritis. Anyway, I am interested in your massage therapy and results from the cleanse. How did you find a good massage therapist? Also, I’d like to know more about the cleanse you are doing. Having more energy and being able to exercise definitely helps me deal with the pain I am still having but would like to be pain free!
My mother also has fibromyalgia and it kills me to see her in so much pain. She barely sleeps 3 hours a night and sometimes has to stay in bed for days!
Thanks for all the tips and info, please let me know about your progress and discoveries about fibro. Cheers:)

Hi everyone,
I have also suffered very much pain of Fibromyalgia and it really ruined my life. It’s really difficult to lead a normal life with this condition. But at one point, blessing came in. I’m now starting living life again and happy with my family.
I used a system that will change my life, make me feel better like anyone else, start attending my kids activities again, feeling great and happy with the my whole family, and enjoy life to the fullest.
The system is…. the “Heal Your Body System”. This offers long term solutions to your Fibromyalgia not just a cover up medication. It gives you the power to cure yourself rather then relying on others to heal you. It gives you the freedom to gain your health back free from the countless medicines you
