Does anyone have tips for diet changes? I’ve heard things like cutting dairy, gluten, processed foods, etc. I was wondering if anyone has tried anything and if it has worked for you?
There is a few books out there on this very subject. After reading a few and trying to adhere to what was suggested
I decided that what works. For one person doesn't necessarily work for another.… read more
So the fibromyalgia diet hasn't changed my symptoms at all. I've been on it for 6 months. My dr wants me to try the low carb diet. Less than 20 carbs per day. Has anyone tried the low carb diet? Did it help your symptoms?
I've found some foods irritate me since I went on meds but diet wise I eat what I fancy if I'm happy and relaxed that helps much more with managing pain xxx sometimes we just have to do what feels… read more
Has anyone found that drinking aloe vera juice helped alleviate their fibromyalgia symptoms? Have you considered or tried this? If so, what was your experience like?
If you love it, drink it. It's an acquired taste. I love it, nice and cold. I don't buy it much, but when my husband was alive, he bought it and really enjoyed it. I did not giggle, just gave you… read more
Yes, I have done both and it has helped me tremendously... At first when I went more raw food my symptoms improved 80% and that was great enough for me to do daily activities.
I just took a food… read more
Hey
I just moved to Los Angeles from Denmark and are looking to try some new treatment for my Fibromyalgia. In Denmark they don't know much about Fibromyalgia which is why I am excited to try new treatments in LA. Does anyone know a good doctor in Los Angeles who knows about fibromyalgia treatments? Maybe someone who has knowledge about LDN. Has anyone tried LDN and does it work?

Both acupuncture or cupping didn't do much for me .
Has anyone found a diet that has helped with overall body pain/aches and tiredness?
I am feeling a little better after 2 weeks of no gluten, no refined sugar, and lots of fruit, nuts and vegetables. I'm trying to just eat organic foods, but it's hard on my pocketbook. I read that a… read more
I have really bad IBS symptoms and I was wondering if anyone has tried any certain types of diets that helped?
Yes that's the same diet my GI doc told me to go on. Eliminating dairy especially milk has been the best move for me. No ice cream. I had some 2 nights ago and I really suffered for it. I'm not… read more
I can no longer take anti-inflammatory drugs, after 17 years my kidneys have said "no more!" . So, I was forced to change my diet in order to keep my kidneys as healthy as possible. This was a slow process over a couple months that we've been living for almost a year now. Our diet now looks like this
A. No processed foods
B. No breads, little to no pastas, rice or heavy starches
C. Heavy fruits and vegetables
D. Nuts, some whole grains: farrow, lintels, quinoa, chia seeds
E. Very little… read more
Yes!!! I started a LOW FODMAP diet over a year ago and my pain and brain fog is pretty much gone. I slip up now and then and have something that is high in Fodmaps but the ensuing pain is not worth… read more
Which diets have worked for you? Which hasn't helped? I eat relatively healthy but considering eating better. Obviously cost and convience impact choices often.
I was put on an elimination diet, I couldn't eat gluten, soy, processed meats, beef, pork, corn, dairy, eggs, chocolate, coffee, tea I'm sure I forgot a few. Doing this did absolutely nothing, it… read more
I've been told by many to change my diet, cut out this, avoid that, this diet helps... but I have little to no energy to plan meals or cook (plus I honestly hate cooking). It seems like every diet that is suggested to me is that you basically eat nothing but a meat, a veg, or a fruit...nothing else. Are there other changes that have worked? If you've changed your diet did it require a lot of cooking and meal prep? If so how do you find the energy? Also, I already have a ton of dietary… read more
I need to look into that. A coworker just started it but I had the flu and couldn't do it with her. It may help my migraines also. Good idea about the keto plan.
