Extreme Pain From MyofascitisPosted By Nurse Valerie (Fillmore, Utah) on 10/06/2021
The pain is now so severe it is affecting her work. I know it is a lot like fibromyalgia, but if anyone has some suggestions for it, I would be so grateful.

There is a lot of individual variation with this condition.
To get a better idea of the pain level that your friend is dealing with, it would be helpful for your friend to try a topical NSAID called Voltaren Gel 1%. This is an over the counter topical pain reliever. The idea is to see how your friend's pain level responds to it to get an idea of the best way to manage that pain, especially during mild stretching exercises which may be helpful longer term.
Another useful test will be to see how your friend responds to the use of an ice pack in the area of muscle pain.
Come back and let us know how your friend responds to Voltaren Gel and icing and then we will have a better idea of a path forward for your friend.

One other thing that will help her is a manual lymph drainage twice a day. It takes 2 minutes to pump these points - starting at the clavicle (points above the collar bone towards the shoulders - cross arms over and pump 10 times), next all fingers slightly curled into the underarm and pump 10 times, inside the elbow is next, then above the naval, the next position is the groin, more on the leg side, and the last is behind the knees. I have noticed incredible improvement in my lymph system since starting this and each point now have a cave as it's no longer stagnant and blocked.

Slowly reintroduce foods starting with organically grown fruits and veggies. Avoid the major food allergy foods (all forms of Milk, Wheat, Corn). Avoid red meat (arachidonic acid) and gradually introduces only one at a time. KEEP A FOOD JOURNAL...you will see patterns form and then you will see what to do.
Blessings for healing. :)
