Any natural or non prescription ways to help with it? I'm open to any new ideas!

Thanks All

Rachel

glad you found someone in co. springs!

& really, really glad it helped!

who is he/she

no it really doesn't help with the fatigue for me either - I think that's what flexeril/nortyrptilyne is supposed to do.

but nothing in pill form is 100 or even 50% at least not for me

My therapist name is Debbie, she works for Columbine Day Spa and Physical Therapy.

It tooks me days of searching every spa and therapy office in the springs to find her but she is amazing.

I went and seen her last night and that is the first time is 2 months I was able to reach behind me and not have a sharp pain going down my neck. I am working to have my insurance pay for the therapy but their out of pocket prices are really reasonable.

I personally feel everyone should try MFR or one of the other Biomechanical Therapies at least once. I'm also glad the price is reasonable. Just curious how much is it?

For others heres a list of all the Biomechanical options from Dr. Podell MD

Biomechanical (body work) therapies: The following body work therapies can help Fibromyalgia-- but only if done by a professional who understands the special vulnerabilities that are typical of FMS/CFS. Done too vigorously, these therapies can make you worse. Effective therapeutic massage and physical therapy techniques for FMS muscle pain go by several names: Structural Integration, Janet Travell, M.D.-style Manual Trigger Point Therapy, Myofascial Release and Deep Connective Tissue Therapy.

regarding Provigal and price. it's also an additive to cosmetics. My daughter's old boyfriend the biochemistry major had Asbergser's & he was ordering the bulk chemical for very little money from overseas via the internet. A little sneaky but who can pay pay $300 out of pocket every month if your Ins doesn't cover it.
