Does fibromyalgia ever go away

Answer 1

There is a possibility it could go away. Whether it does or does not, it can be controlled. My wife suffered for years with this. It led to anxiety, chronic fatigue syndrome, and clinical depression. She saw a number of medical doctors, counselors, pain control groups, and psychiatrists. She was on various types of medication and all this to no avail. One day we happen to stop in a store that sold organic foods, and health products, Within all of three minutes, the owner stated exactly what she believed to be the problem. She gave my wife a book to read which included a diet. Another book she read had to do with yeast within the body (there appears to be a yeast connection). My wife did not like this diet but at this point - with so much pain - she was willing to try anything. I have to tell you, within three weeks she was a different person. Her pain subsided by 90%, she started functioning within the house, slept better, her got her sense of humor back. In other words, she was able to function as a normal human being. I was - as well as her- amazed on what a difference this diet made. It changed her life and now she wants to write a web page devoted to telling everybody she can reach who has fibromialgia, that it can be controlled. For me, I am just very angry, that with all the doctors she saw, with all the blood tests, and medication, they couldn't see that diet had much, if not everything to do with this painful disease. Still, in order for it to work, she had to stick to this diet without cheating. It made a big difference in her life and indirectly in mine also. If you would like to know exactly what she had to do, I would contact me on my message board, and you can communicate with my wife. I do not know if this is appropriate for this site, but because of the seriousness of this problem that not many have an answer for, I feel it is justified. No one should have to go through life suffering with this kind of pain, Best wishes!

Answer 2

I find that my symptoms do go away, but will return eventually. I will have periods where I can get so much done, be so productive; then the fatigue and aches, etc. come back and I struggle to do the simplest tasks. This is so frustrating because I look fine, but feel terrible.

I would say that it is. I myself have been diagnosed 10 years now and since then it has got progessively worse. I run a fibromyalgia support group and this is the case for all my members as well. Although the condition can wax and wane

Answer 5

Doctors will not say you can get rid of Fibro, they will say it can go into a dormant state. Depending on the Dr. you are talking to they consider dormancy to be little pain (1 or 2 on the scale) or no pain.

Saying that you can live without pain for a day to months, to years. I have spoken to someone who is now on their tenth year of dormancy. I am almost at 2 years of no pain.

Fibro affects everyone differently, and you have to find your unique way to dealing with Fibro. There are different techniques and tools that work, and for some drugs, others holistic/alternative methods or a combiation of both.
