I got the shots from an acupncturist. The 2 products are a little hard to find

in stores.

Willner Chemists online (or in NYC) has the Fibroplex, though I think that it is

not listed--

you need to call them for it. Some chiropractors or other alternative

practitioners carry

the Metagenics line.

I found the lotion at a health food store when I was traveling in Massachusetts.

Online I

have seen that some other health food stores carry it, but none near me, so

again I have to

order it from someplace online.

Good luck!.

Thanks Pielet.

Where do you find the Fibroplex? Also, where do you find the Sympathical's

Fibromyalgia lotion? I'm always open to new ideas.

What kind of doctor gave you the injections?

Hi Ruth,

I did the water aerobics for arthritics when I was first diagnosed. I think it

helped, but the

people all complained so much about how horrible they felt (none of them had

FM), that I

started to become very negative and " un-hopeful " about my pain. So after 3

rounds (about

a year or so), I stopped going.

I also tried acupuncture (not very helpful for me, though I know others who had

better

results), massage (felt good at the time, but no lasting effects), and

homeopathic

injections of Traumeel into the trigger spots (a little effective).

For a long time I was taking Fibroplex (nutritional supplements) and that really

helped

almost immediately. Then I got lazy and stopped taking them. When I went back to

it, it

didn't seem to work anymore, but maybe the pills were just too old. Maybe I'll

try them

again...

About 3 years ago I found Sympathical's Fibromyalgia lotion and that has worked

pretty

well. On my very bad days, I'll pull it out and I do get some substantial

relief. It's a small

bottle, but a tiny bit goes a very long way. It's just very hard to find.

Can't wait to hear others' experiences!
