I am 22 and this is pretty young to be diagnosed with Fibro. In the past months I have found out that this disease of pain is also related to other factors, Of course unlike some of you I have a back ground of abuse and this is one of the things that makes fibro alot worse in certain ways. And fibro can do alot of weird things to your body you just have to be ready for things to happen. The Doctors thing that I had this before having children but giving birth just brought the syptoms out even more.
Part of Fibro is Stress related which causes you to have panic attacks and anxiety disorder. There have been people who have done studies on fibro patients and found that most people who have been abused in some way shape or form end up having fibro. And then you have other people such as war victims and people who have been injured in other ways.
I have learned that there are other ways around killing the pain other then medication from a doctor. I went through some of the drugs but they werent doing the job and I didnt fell like sleeping my daughters life away. So I got on the herbal kick found that herbs do just as good as job and finding the right music also helps. I found that Linda Eder and Enya kills my pain and relaxes me! Also herbal tea walking and a healthy diet does the body good and the only way you will keep your feet and your movement is if you dont exercise in some way youll end up in a wheel chair!
so dont give up and let you body have its energy back by being healthy
