FEATURED ARTICLE October 14, 2007

How Common Are CFS, Fibromyalgia & Pain?

You are not alone! Recent research has shown that estimates of Fibromyalgia prevalence have increased by almost 400% in the last 10 years to include 7-8% of the adult population. For more information, read How Common are CFS and Fibromyalgia?


NEW RESEARCH
Supplementing with Ribose (CORvalen)

This study, published in the JACM Nov 2006, showed an average 45 increase in quality of life in CFS/Fibromyalgia patients given 5 gms of a special sugar called Ribose (CORvalen) 2-3 x day. See Full Study.


Lyrica for Fibromyalgia Pain

Lyrica (Pregabalin) for Fibromyalgia pain. We have been using this for Fibromyalgia pain for several years in my clinic as well as at the Fibromyalgia and Fatigue Centers and have found it to be VERY helpful. For more information, see Lyrica for Fibromyalgia Pain.


Chocolate for CFS & Fibromyalgia

Treating CFS with Dark chocolate has been shown to be healthy, supplying large amounts of anti-oxidants. New research suggests it even helps CFS and Fibromyalgia! See Chocolate for CFS and Fibromyalgia.

IV Nutritional Support for CFS & Fibromyalgia

IV (Intravenous) nutritional support gets more support. Most holistic physicians treating CFS and Fibromyalgia have found that IV nutritional support (called the "Standard IV" is very helpful. See IV Nutritional Support for CFS and Fibromyalgia.

Acetyl-L-Carnitine for CFS, Cancer Related Fatigue & Fibromyalgia

Lose weight and treat your CFS & Fibromyalgia. We have noted for several decades that the nutrient Acetyl-L-Carnitine is low in CFS & Fibromyalgia and this deficiency contributes to both the weight gain (see How Fibromyalgia, CFS, and Stress can Make You Gain Weight!) and fatigue. For more information, see Acetyl-L-Carnitine for CFS and Fibromyalgia.

Nitroglycerine Spray for Diabetic Neuropathy

Nitroglycerine spray for diabetic nerve pain. My book Pain Free 1-2-3! (McGraw Hill 2006) goes into great depth on how to treat nerve pain effectively. This study adds 1 more inexpensive option. Nitroglycerin is usually used for angina, but has been used for many other conditions including anal fissures. For more information, see Nitroglycerine Spray For Diabetic Neuropathy.


QUOTE/JOKE OF THE DAY

Man's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions.

Lawyer Jokes -Part 1
(My apologies to the lawyers-please don't sue me;-)

One afternoon, a well-to-do lawyer was riding in his shiny limousine when he saw two men along the roadside eating grass...


LECTURES & MEDIA APPEARANCES

See Dr Teitelbaum's media and speaking engagements. Although, Dr. Teitelbaum would like to lecture everywhere he is invited, this would require heavy cloning. If your support group would like a free DVD of a lecture by Dr. Teitelbaum to play at one of your meetings, please email us with your support group name and address (including e-mail). The DVD's can also be purchased on our web site.


NEW IN THE NEWS

As we've discussed above, CFS and Fibromyalgia are finally starting to get the respect they deserve. We noted the New York Times article noting that CFS is real and devastating. Perhaps even more important is that CFS and Fibromyalgia are starting to make it on Oprah.

I recently had the honor of being on Oprah and Friends with Dr. Oz (who is awesome). In addition, my books are now recommended on Oprah's site - Pain Free 1-2-3 and From Fatigued To Fantastic! (new edition just released).


More Good News! For decades, the most common complaint I've heard from those with CFS and Fibromyalgia is that their physicians are clueless. The great news is that there is now a nationwide chain of clinics specializing in the treatment of CFS and Fibromyalgia, and their physicians are outstanding. Won't it be great to finally have a doctor who knows more than you do! They are able to help over 80% of their patients within 4 months.
