About FibroMichelle

After being diagnosed with fm, I ended up on several medications. One to help me sleep, one to keep me awake during the day and one for pain. They ended up making me feel worse. I ended up very frustrated. I chose to see a holistic doctor that used to work at the cleveland clinic. It was the best decision ever. My symptoms are not gone, but manageable, and because of it, I have been able to keep my fulltime job (which I thought I might have to quit because the symptoms were so intense). My positve results became my passion and I started a website on holistic care. I also have CFS.
