A life time stolen by Fibromyalgia. As time progressed more and more symptoms accumulated and was just suppressed and disregarded as normal life aging. As many as five and more than likely more syndromes compile, life went on until age 56 when The Fibromyalgia skyrocketed to the level of torture.

Dealing with this for a couple more years with the aid of pain meds then the Medical community with pressure from Congress decided to let me suffer my torture.

I scrambled to seek relief through any legal means possible regardless of the consensus. I did find relief in an anti-inflammatory but on a very high dose and suspected it could be harmful to my kidneys.

I stumbled on Dr St Amands research in Guaifenesin and went for it, although it would be months before I sought to follow his protocol. Although my case is not normal it instantly arrested the torture periods as long as I continued to take it periodically. Snake oil -I think not. Could it be the placebo effect – who cares at this point. As time progressed I began to realize my body changing.

Two months into the Guaifenesin Protocol it seems Restless Leg Syndrome has gone and no more need for the prescription of Ropinirole. To date my legs have not felt this good in over 20 years. Six months or so into the Guaifenesin Protocol I noticed that lumps I’ve had on my scalp and in my muscles of the forearms and calves were gone. Neither the RLS or Lumps I connected to Fibromyalgia at that time. Now it seems the Placebo effect is busted as not just mental perception has changed but physical changes have been made. Many thanks go to Dr St Amand and the Facebook page fibro buddies on guaifenesin protocol for their guidance and dedication. They are true life savers. I have been on the Protocol for 15 months now and am age 63.
