DMSO for Fibromyalgia
I started taking 1/2 tsp of DMSO every night. It's the fourth day now and most of my stiffness and sore joints have disappeared. I started taking 1 oregano capsule every day, too, plus a capsule of garlic in the afternoon. But I have done those before with no results. The DMSO is amazing. I was getting so stiff I couldn't bend at the knee. My bursistis in my left arm is improving, too.

Dear Ted,
A few months ago someone told me about this site, so I started reading as much as possible in an attempt to figure out what was wrong with me. It seemed that every time I read something that sparked my interest you wrote it. About 3 years ago I became very sick crippled in bed with pain in my hole body. It felt like electrical shocks traveling threw my veins. I also experienced what I will call hot spots mainly in my left arm which I was not able to move with out pain for many months. I went threw test after test to be told all where normal. Finally I was told by an infectious disease doctor that I had undiagnosed lymes and probably had it for many years. I was given antibiotics and began to feel a little better. I have had many tick bites since I love the woods. My primary Doctor told me there was nothing wrong with me and suggested I get psychiatric help but at the same time he sent me to another Doctor and after a 2 minute examination he told me I had Fibromyalga. At that point I lost all faith in medical doctors. I spent many years learning to deal with the pain and just adjusted to the fact that if I was able to function for a day the next 2 days I would be bed ridden. Each day I had to force myself out of bed it was an effort just to get to the bathroom. There is a lot more to my story but I will get to the point. I finally decided to try DMSO and with in 5 days of taking a half of teaspoon I have no pain and the energy of a 3 year old child. I still have the numbness in my left index finger and thumb and tickling up my arm. But to be pain free after all these years is a miracle! If you have time to write back I can give you more details of other doctors findings concerning my spine and hips. I am afraid to continue with the DMSO for I don't know if it will cause other problems. Please write back with your advise.
Thank You!
