I've heard loads of stories of B12 injections helping Fibro, but the scientific studies couldn't come up with a link. I'm guessing that's probably because all these autonomic nervous disorders effect everyone differently, particularly when it comes to what helps relieve symptoms!

Off the subject, but WHERE in south TX are you?
Hubby wants to move to west TX and I have a daughter in Austin.
If your old clothes are getting to big, I'll take 'em. I'm putting on weight .

Didn't know you could get a referral to an Alt. Med. doc where you are. That is fantastic!!!!
I can't here. Have to pay out of pocket for anything out of the ordinary. Some insurance companies in the US have started to cover things like acupuncture/chiropractic, etc. but not mine.
Vitamin and mineral supplements/injections don't make money for the western med. docs so they poo-poo them every chance they get. If a western med. doc can get money out of insurance for B-12 injections then he'll use them. It all boils down to money. Medicine is a business, plain and simple. It's sad.

speaking as someone who had these problems even way back in highschool, it may be best to get all the diagnosing done early so you know what you're dealing with.
that said, i absolutely FORBID you to have fibro.
have a nice day.

me too tara. better to know that to think you're wierd all your life like me !! (um,...wierd-ER)
I smiled at Kandee's saying to call them growing pains, because the fibro books say that fibro in young people is often referred to as growing pains! So she's right! Unfortunately.

Kandee, the books say massage helps a lot. Even the Arthritis Foundation quotes studies confirming it. I'm going for my first one tomorrow. My cousin swears by it. It actually has been shown to calm the autonomic nervous system and the effect lasts for days, even weeks.

Really, really you CAN have fibro as a teen? OMG, that is just terrible!!!
But, I suppose if they can diagnose 6 MONTH year olds having hypothyroidism any condition can come at any age.
This all makes me sooooo angry!!!!

Oh...I'm not saying I have this. See..that's why I say it's just from other things combined. And I'm getting better anyhow. I'm quite confident I'll get better. I just have to pace myself. I'm DEFINITELY not going to label myself with having this (not that it's a bad label) because I don't feel like having another label. I"m going to be free! Thanks for the kind words!
