In Oct. i was in the same boat as you...at the end of my rope. I had even filled out disability papers...but just prayed! Came across a post and my friend who has RA said she was doing a vitamin routine that helped so much. I said 'what the heck" i will give it a try. and again prayed...by Dec I tried and haven't looked back. it has changed my life. not a cure but worked better than anything else. so try a natural route. I have less flares more energy and brain fog is at it's lowest.

I know how you feel. I have thrown the towel in somewhat. I try exercise, diet, physical therapy for a degenerative neck issue. All the medications and it fibromeylga had changed me I'm a shell of who I was. I had to close a business, cut down working, stop working, with my Husbands support thankfully. I'm 53 soon and I'm filing for disability. I can't function regular everyday. Everyday is different. All my notes from my pain management doctor where I also get cortisone put in all over. They put severe depression. Ah yeah. I was athletic and a runner ect. Done. Skin care business done. You do get depressed. Wow, just joined the group think I just had to get that out. Noone understands....... Thanks for being here!

after so000 many years trying Lyrica, trying tomax, trying Celexa (mildest one) and so many others I can not remember I went on vitamin therapy. IT truly changed my life! My rhuemo had been asking me all along to focus on a vitamin therapy.

I understand. I have tried everything! Everything. This has almost ruined my marraige. I'm so different than I was in my 30's.
Joking helps me cope. But there our times when depression is severe from feeling so bad. It's a horrible thing. I lost my business, had to give up alot of types of working out have a neck injury and degeneration. School was hard took a break from that, I know I'm 52, but not wanting to be in bed so much or tired. :(

I take 5-HTP which helps production of serotonin which aids sleep, mood and brain fog, VitD helps immune system and with bone pain, VitB complex which is for energy and helps fatigue and brain fog, magnesium which is for relaxing muscles and helps nervous system, omega 3 for Brain fog. I also drink a cup of camomile tea before bed to help with sleep and a cup of green tea with lime and VitB6 on a morning to get my energy going.
It is recommended that 5-HTP is taken alongside magnesium and Vit B.
