Hi, I'm not sure if anyone has already suggested it, but when I was on vacation in Las Vegas a month ago I felt a million times better. My husband felt better as well. He doesn't have fibro like I do but has back problems and migraines. We live in Utah and the elevation is more than double what it is there. So I'm thinking elevation may very well be a factor as far as pain goes.
thanks for the info on South Carolina we were considering as a possible place to live. Oh well back on the search for the best place.
Thanks for your info on San Juan. How is the medical care in San Juan?
What is the crime rate like. We are considering a move to Fahardo, San Juan.
I have FM and Lupus. I have had FM 25yrs. The back pain has increased.
I live in Colorado where the weather is cold and shifty in the winter.
Hope you are feeling better today.
There are many good comments here about how to relieve some of the symptoms of fibromyalgia; however, we should also be considering what actually causes it to find a cure. Just from these comments, you can see that it may take years to develop, which suggests years of some type of environmental exposure (hence some doctors suggesting toxic exposure).
I would like you to consider our new environment: microwaves from all the cell phone communications, satellite communications to those towers and possibly even GPS signals. Go to NASA and click on the link to see all the satellites orbiting above you right now. Many orbits are over the central states. Note that there are less orbits (for security reasons?) over DC? Maybe the coasts and islands are better for the disease for this reason. Do we REALLY need all these satellites if, in fact, they are causing these new, modern diseases that seem to take a few years to develop?
I live in SLC currently. I am in SO much pain with every seasonal change. Winter is the worst. I was considering Texas, thanks for the input.
Puerto Rico is pretty cheap and it stays around 70 degrees all year long. It's a US territory and everyone there is a US citizen. Enough people know English that you don't need to learn Spanish.
Not to mention, it's part of the Caribbean! Plus it's affordable!
