Hello fello sufferer: I am quite certain your symptoms could be handled by the Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique, NAET for short. I am a patient at the main clinic in Buena Park, California, and as such have witnessed for myself the remarkable results they achieve. I have also taken the practitioner training classes to enable me to treat myself. (Mike Devour--I don't charge money when I treat using this method, so I am not promoting anything I have a financial interest in.) During my visits to their clinic, and the training seminars, there has been much discussion about the efficacy of NAET with fibromyalgia, as well as many other maladies. To the NAET practitioner, an allergy is a substance that is ingested, injected, inhaled or touched that causes a blockage in the energy meridians of the body. In the process of treatment the allergen is discovered through muscle testing and computer analysis, and unblocked using chiropractic and acupuncture techniques. I have talked with many patients while waiting for my own treatments; they have relayed how they had very bad problems with fibromyalgia, but no longer have any of the symptoms.
If you decide to check out this approach, you would need to find a practitioner near you who has taken the training. Go to www.naet.com to locate one. Also, you can call them at (714) 523-8900 during their office hours, which are most Mondays until 2 p.m., Wednesdays from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m., Fridays until 2 p.m. and some Saturdays during the day. Inquire about a practitioner who has taken a large number of the classes and has been practicing a long while, and who also does acupuncture instead of just acupressure, as this seems to be more effective. If you decide to give this treatment a try, you will be looking at an introductory session which includes medical history, computer allergy testing and actual treatment for around $150, and then around $70 for subsequent treatments. You need to do a series of 15 basic treatments before approaching the cause/causes of your symptoms. How much more treatment you would need depends on your own situation. For persons with many serious allergies this would be a long-term treatment to become cleared of the allergies, but to treat the fibromyalgia could be accomplished relatively quickly after the basic treatments. I, too, have gone the route of going from one doctor to another, with nothing working, and being told conflicting information, and given treatments which do not work and are often harmful. I conclude that often the allopathic approach does not work well, and is often harmful. If you do undergo the NAET treatment, I promise you you will be very satisfied, and even astounded. A word of caution: The practitioner who treats me in the main Buena Park office in California is the best, and has had 30 years practice and training. Sometimes the other practitioners can't solve the more difficult problems, and in a few cases they are ineffective. If you live far away from the southern California clinic, one option would be (and this is what I would do if I were you, knowing what I know now) to come for an introductory treatment, and some number of treatments following that, scheduled up to four times a week, and then return to your area to a recommended NAET practitioner, but continuing to check with the home office or visit them to make sure the treatments given in your area actually being done effectively. If they are done correctly, THEY ABSOLUTELY WILL WORK!

Wishing you the best, Jill
