I was hoping I would receive great information when I

joined this group! I am glad I was not disappointed.

The theory right now for Fibromyagia is that it might

be an autoimmune disease. The fibro has destroyed the

immune response in about 50% of us that have it. They

do know that people with fibro have an elevated level

of " subatance P " in the spinal fluid. Subatance P is a

chemical that has someting to do with how the brain

perceives pain. That may be why things that others

feel causes them little or no pain but causes the

person with fibro to fell intense pain that last a

exteaordinarily long time. I know because some days I

cannot even put clothes on becaus the fabric rubbing

against my skin cause intense pain. Thankfully that

doesn't happen that often. An example is when a freind

of mine patted me on the upper arm on day and I had to

tell her it hurt. Not only did it hurt.. it hurt for

HOURS after she did it. Of course she didn't realize

how that would affect me. Sometimes it is worse than

others too.

If you know someone who has the condition I recommend

the but the book entitled " Fibromyalgia & Chronic

Myofacial Pain A Survival Manual " written by DR.

Devin Starlanyl (she is a medical doctor who has the

condition) and Ellen Copeland.
