Guest guest Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 Hi Christie - I am not a doctor and cannot diagnose. However, if fibromyalgia turns out to be Lyme disease, a bacterial infection, which in my case it has, I have been able to stop all inflammatory eye symptoms by drinking mangosteen juice, an anti-inflammatory antioxidant juice. It's found in healthfood stores and online. I drink the Ultra one from Trace Minerals with 70 minerals added, also I like mango-xan. I drink about 1/2 ounce in the morn and eve - I may have done a lot more in the beginning, with a lot of water. It also stops constipation, making my intestines very regular. The bacterial infection can mess up everything in the body so we go looking for the remedies that will counter its bodywide inflammation. - Robin Re: New to the Group Christie, have you checked out water retention as the cause o your swollen eyes? Perhaps too much salt? Some food that causes the swelling to get worse that then causes water retention? rosemarie > > > > > > Hey everyone, I am new to this group. My name is Christie.
