I am 41 years old..NEVER been hypersensitive to pain before...this has nothing to do with being hypersensitive..

@mya3772 Looked it up, that is very interesting. All the symptoms are very similar. I really think that syndromes and disorders such as this are signs that there is something wrong with the environment and not the people who have this. My body feels sick, like I am having an allergic reaction to the outside world. We as a culture need to stop looking so much at the individual and look at where that person is coming from.

Because my acute pain is fine... I can tolerate almost any acute pain.. because I know that there is an end. Chronic pain is different.. it can rob a person's soul. How do you treat that when doctors don't want to treat people?? Nor find out the cause of Fibro and they just turn their cheek? It's not a psychological problem. I would love to hear ONE doctor whom suffers from Fibromyalgia and please tell us what is their treatment plan and to be open and honest. I bet it's different from ours.

And to the doctor..... there is no way that we are "hyper-sensitive" to pain and pain stimuli. I live with pain everyday. I can't wake up without being in pain. I'm not hypersensitive, I have deep chronic stabbing pain and I have a huge tolerance to pain. My dentist says that he barely has to numb me and that he told me that I had a huge pain tolerance. That his other patients would be complaining. Here's a question.. How does the hypersensitivity affect acute pain v/s chronic pain??

@OutsideTheBox28 I agree with you and that's what I was going to say. Fibromyalgia is a "newer" diagnosis and they are learning more about it and the clinical manifestations and causes... Open your eyes... there's got to be a huge correlation between all the preventable chemicals in our bodies and Fibro. Look up "Gulf War Syndrome" and the found symptoms caused from heated Aspartame from the desert heat. They mimic and are almost identical to the symptoms of Fibromyalgia.

"Echinacea - which is an immune stimulant... that's in a lot of toothpaste & mouth washes." = SHE IS TALKING OUT HER ASS.
Echinacea is NOT an ingredient in Johnson & Johnson's Crest, NOT in Colgate Palmolive's Colgate, NOT in Church & Dwight's Aim nor Closeup.
That's the 4 major toothpaste brands that dominate the US market. NONE include echinacea. Only a few specialty brands like BioForce & A.Vogel include echinacea - and the consumer use of those 2 brands is TINY compared to Crest & Colgate.

@scotcandy2001 I have it too and I understand why she is talking about toothpaste if you ever start researching whats in our health products you would be surprised how many toxic and potentially toxic things are in them I didn't worry about that stuff much until 1) I started working at a natural grocery store in health and beauty and had to do the research and 2) I suddenly had a reaction to MSG for the first time in my life leading me to find that with fibro u can be sensitive to many things

I am a recovered fibromyalgic who had to leave the care of the medical profession to discover the cause and cure of this horrific condition, without drugs. I completely understand this illness from the inside and back out again, and am living proof that you can cure this and take back your life! Please do not give up from failed hope. Keep going!!!

Doesnt it have something to do with the Guifenisein protocol? There is something in commercial toothpaste that is bad for Fibro patients. I think he says to use baking soda and water to brush your teeth. Seriously. I have Fibro and have had it for 10 years now.

What if all the disgusting chemicals they are putting in ALL of our products cause sensitive people to develop fibromyalgia in the first place?
