Fibromyalgia is a very recent discovery....I'm not sure if doctors know what causes it. I do know diet plays a key role. Let me ask you some questions. Do you know MSG goes under 13 other names and can be devastating to your body?...Do you know microwaved food cannot be utilized by the body? Do you know lunch meat has sodium nitrates? Breads have mycotoxins? All of the foods you eat can have a great impact on your body.
Are you taking supplements?....Do you know just one vitamin/ defieciency can cause many, many problems? Take a close look at your diet!
Thanks for your wonderful comment.I am just sharing as well my experiences with this illness.

FM is not an Autoimmune disease by itself, so it doesn't "attack" the body, but the pain can move around. See the heath information posted on our site through the link below. This should give you a better idea of what symptoms can manifest.
