Re: Savella?

[Guest guest]

Hi :

I saw now saw this post after I had answered your other email. Between

reading this email and what I said to you, I suspect even more about the

help that book might offer you.

Personally I hate those drugs they are coming up with for fibro. I do not

know anyone who is doing better from taking them. My sister almost died

from them. Not an exaggeration.

I think good food, lots of veggies, low carb diet such as no sugar, white

bread, etc. helps way more than any drug.

Also, a stress relieving activity such as the one I suggested in the other

email plus meditation, yoga, exercise of any kind like we talked about last

week.

So I took so long getting back to you. I¹ve been in an uproar around here

myself recently.

Have a wonderful day.
