A Case Of Fibromyalgia

A Case Of Fibromyalgia

- Dr Joette Calabrese

Homeopathic practice is simple, special and profound — because it combines the art and science of homeopathic therapeutics with the joy of healing oneself, family and, of course, our patients.

Here goes — Fibromyalgia, a complex chronic pain disorder, doesn’t scare me. It used to, particularly, when I suffered from it nearly 35 years ago. But, not anymore.

Actually, the fibrous pain I once had was not my most pressing complaint [though it certainly caused a drag in my day-to-day existence]. It was worse during certain times of the month and better during others, but pretty much omnipresent.

What changed, and why don’t I have it any longer? Well, I started to revise a few things.

First, I stopped taking analgesics, antibiotics and any other such baloney. But, the real change appeared [which practically happened overnight] after I took a homeopathic medicine.

Which one? And, for how long? Hold your horses, and give me a chance to expound a little so you know what I mean when I use the word ‘fibromyalgia.’

Fibromyalgia is a condition that is accompanied by habitually debilitating fatigue and gut dysbiosis [which is often the underlying cause, along with anxiety, depression, chemical sensitivities, etc.]. In my case, the remedy I took worked so simply, so efficaciously, so thoroughly that it wasn’t long before I actually forgot all about the muscle tenderness and joint pains and concentrated on all the other stuff I was left with.

It freed me to unspool the bigger concerns: my gut. So, what was this remarkable remedy, you may ask?

If you know any homeopathy at all, you’ll totally get this. It’s the #1 remedy for joint, muscle and oft chronic pain and tenderness: Rhus Toxicodendron, or Rhus Tox for short.
