FMS surfaced for me after a severe blow to the top of my head, followed 2 yrs later by being at the bottom, on my side, of a crushing 'dogpile'. That was 5 & 7 years ago, respectively.
I stopped working aprox. 6 mo. after the last injury, and progressively got worse for 2 years. Then I seemed to plateu, and have been at this very low level (meaning HIGH symptoms) since.
Some therapies seem to temporarily heal me, then FMS comes back with a vengence, slamming me back down to the bottom, again. Switch therapies, feel better, don't feel better, feel worse, switch, etc. Helps to have a large repetoire(how do ya spell that?
) of therapies.
So, cure? Haven't heard of one, yet. But, you CAN help yourself achieve remissions (even tho you might not hit your pre-FMS 100%). Learn, educate yourself, and try any, and every safe therapy until you find what works best for you.
Sometimes I still get to
, so all hope is not lost! good luck
