11. So sorry you have fibro
Mon Sep 21, 2015, 07:05 PM
Sep 2015

I've had it for years. Sometimes it flares up, usually due to stress. In recent years mine hasn't been too bad, but I've been having a flareup for at least a month due to stress.



Here's something I read about glutathione and fibro. (link) I don't know whether this approach works or not, but I do know that acetaminophen (such as Tylenol) depletes glutathione in the body. I have read that hospitals use glutathione on people who have overdosed on acetaminophen. Because of this, I have stopped using acetaminophen painkillers, and I wonder if that might be one reason that the fibro hasn't been too bad in recent years.
