People with this disorder have immune deficiencies and it effects the mind/body and spirit. Quote:

Is there any way she can find someone who specializes in fibro, or at least accepts that it exists and will treat her problem instead of her head? | My best gurlfriend goes to a specialist and has for about the past 7 years. She is a fibro specialist and a therapist and has done wonders for her. She got her off the pain meds and anti depressants and is doing some talk therapy with her. I wish I could find a counsellor like that. Quote:

No kidding! People do trust doctors to easily and get sucked in to the wrong meds. Most doctors do the easiest thing and that is to prescibe drugs. Period!

| | The problem also sits with Dr.s who get perks from drug companies. They get shit from pot sellers, if they did everyone with the sniffles would end up with a bag-o-herb.
I've got emphysema and I couldn't afford my meds.(spiriva), it's $100.00 per month. My Dr. would give me a 5 month supply for free saying, I get it for free.....Luckily now I pay 0 for all my meds. Gov. pays it all.........ya Quebec

| | I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia 2 years ago and my doctor whom I've had for 29 years now, prescribed a large amount of perks for me each month. I was to take them as often as I needed them each day and I did. It took me awhile to realize that they weren't working because I was always right ripped so I went back and told her I really didn't like them at all and was there something else she could give me. She said I could take SROM but I refused that one. She then told me off the record that the best thing I could do was to find an "herb" that was right for me and use it as often as necessary. Needless to say I am out and about almost every day now and I don't have to worry if my husband is here in the morning to help me out of bed because I can't do it myself, and I can live my life a hell of alot more normal and almost pain free. I think marijuana should be prescribed for all of us who suffer from fibromyalgia... better yet, I think we should be able to grow our own for medicinal purposes without being harrassed and without fear of going to prison and losing our children and everything we have worked so hard for. I grow Jack Herer and I find it to be a good pain reliever and it sure beats the snot out of being addicted to perks.

Some sativas are good as well, but I prefer the kush.I used "Dutch Passion" recently and it was very helpful. You will need to switch strains. Don't smoke the same thing for too long. Every time I switch to something different, it always seems to work better. Experiemt, see what works best for you.
I have a coop in Hesperia, Ca. If your anywhere near me, I would love to be of some help.

| | sorry sweetie | | as you can see, I am a newbie and just beginning to learn about strains. I knew the kush/Sativa thing because I have fibromyalgia and read that the kushes are better for pain, tried out the theory and the article was right. Learning fast tho.
