fibromyalgia,, is this an answer for you?

[Gyro812]

Hi , as an Adult with Aspergers syndrome, I was priscribed a drug called Aropax. After being on Aropax for some time ,I developed symptoms of Fibromyalgia. The drugs side affects did cause mild muscle akes and muscle spasims but nothing bad until I got the Fibro myalga. I ran an experiment with my Doctor and weaned off them and the Fibromyalga went over a few weeksin a  decreasing fashion. I then went back on it again and the problems returned.
However at times of excessive stress it does return , so I may of developed a tendancy towards it, but most of the time no more symptoms. Can other medication do the samething? Is it combinations of natural and unnatural mixtures of chemicals? What do you think?

Is that the Noni juice ?

I also have Fibro. and have had it for the last two to three years.  My doctor first prescribed Lyrica, but the side effects made me quit taking it.  I don't know what I was thinking, because I hate taking medicines anyway, but I guess I was at a point of dire straits.  Needless to say I went on for a while with several problems (Fibro with its 19 symptoms) and a friend of mind recommended a juice to me.  It has helped me tremendously and given me energy.  E-mail me if you are interested and we can talk more.
