		<description>Hi, all.&amp;nbsp; Although the website has an entire page dedicated to available treatment protocols I thought it would be nice for the forum members to post treatments for various symptoms.&amp;nbsp; If it is published protocol, please try to give a reference, ie, a book title, article, media or web address.&amp;nbsp; If it is just something that you have tried and it helps you, then none of the refernce info is necessary.&amp;nbsp; You may know of a treatment that works for you, can pass it along to the other forum members and guests, who (after discussing it with their physician,) may benefit from trying it.&amp;nbsp;Keep in mind that you should never begin a new medical treatment protocol without first speaking to your doctor.&amp;nbsp; TUFRC is not responsible for the accuraccy/medical value of information posted here nor for any injury caused to persons who&amp;nbsp;implement them into their treatment.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;</description>

			<description>I have finally got rid of my dreadful pain.  I did it by doing a treatment protocol which I found at www.cpnhelp.org.  If you don't know about that website you definitely need to take a look at it.  It's truly amazing.  It has got comprehensive information on Chlamydia Pneumoniae, the infectious bacteria which is the root cause of fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, multiple sclerosis and many other chronic diseases.  I've been doing one of their treatments for several months and I'm nearly  ...</description>

			<description>Hi, my cousin has been diagnosed with fibromyalgia. No one among us has ever encountered this ailment; it was new to us, until a friend of ours introduced PhoneConsultation.com.  This website is face to face doctor visit. Their doctors are very accommodating, anyone else tried them?</description>

			<description>Your body has a natural system of renewal that can be tapped into easily. Through increasing the number of circulating adult stem cells in your body the pain and inflamation from your fibro can be decreased substantially.  My girlfriend is virtually pain free and doesnt even know what to do with herself now. She has had fibro since she was 15 and now is 24. Her docter here in Grand Junction was useless and only encouraged her to take perscriptions that caused more problems than she already had.  ...</description>

			<dc:creator>marybernadette</dc:creator>
			<description>Detoxing was one of the first things that made me feel better. I used Niacin, not the no flush kind. I read an article that said that it helped arthritis. It took away the stiffness and pain in my feet. Then I found out that it also helps remove toxins, it probably does this because it dilates your blood vessels. Certain people shouldn't take it though so don't take anything without talking to your doctor and doing a lot of research.</description>

Author: Barry Hughes, Ph.D.



Article:

The makers of Cymbalta have been working on getting it approved

by the Food and Drub Administration for the treatment of

fibromyalgia. That would make it the second medication approved

for that use. The first, the anti-convulsant Lyrica, was

approved fairly recently and is in wide use. Cymbalta is already

FDA approved for depression, anxiety, and neuropathic pain.

Article:

What are alternative medical techniques?



Alternative medical techniques most commonly are outside of

conventional medical care (1). In other words, they promote

wholistic healing for pain management. Wholistic healing

involves treating the whole person, body, emotions, mind,

relationships, and spirit (1). Alternative medical techniques
