It helps to have someone to relate to.

My apologies for the blurry slike on the conditions linked to oxidative stress.You can see it in the community tab: www.youtube.com/@dr.pammiejean/community Blessings!

Hi beautiful people! Love you so much! I hope your day is great! Blessings.

I believe that PET and SPECT Scans also can image and display the areas of the brain “lighting up” in “NociPlastic” or “Central Sensitization” caused chronic pain. But these imaging devices, though not rare, are often based at universities and are mostly for research studies. They are as you say, very expensive. But then what? The treatment is still a DIY project with few doctors willing to prescribe any opioid pain medications even at safe low doses. We who suffer with “High Impact Chronic Pain” (Fibromyalgia, CPS, CRPS, etc..) sadly still will suffer. God bless everyone who suffers with poorly understood high impact chronic pain. My best understanding is there’s anywhere from 12 to 18 million of us in the United States.

Many doctors don’t prescribe the low dose medication you were speaking about although kit found to help, because it not protocol at this time. I’m looking at functional medicine and hope it will make me feel better and I hope you all feel better soon.

Yes, I too have it, started with Eczema in early years , later allergies ( environmental and food). Later fatigue and muscle pain. Because no blood test can prove this is autoimmune, it will not be treated as autoimmune disease. I’m on steroids and sometimes antibiotics at least 2 times a year . But take allergy medicine all year long. I truly believe it is an autoimmune disease. Keep up the good work and please continue to push for this illness to be recognized for what it truly is . People look at it as something made up because they don’t know what’s wrong with you 😮.

How do you feel about oxidatives stress as a root cause? 💜💜💜

Hot baths work well for me and I have arthritis, and hypermobikity.

So basically, no scientist knows what really is causing it or how to help us. Sad, i pray you find the way to help us all. Have you looked into biofilms?

It didn't make sense because on their website it says to use a FODMAP diet where you said to avoid a FODMAP diet

I found your channel while surfing. It took a lifetime to get a valuable diagnosis for me. An abusive long term marriage followed an abusive childhood. Looking back, my symptoms were all there. Trips to the Dr as a child left me with no answers. I remember fainting during math class in Jr high. They carried me to the nurses office. They performed all sorts of tests.. no clear answers. Then the rib cage pain.. we were told it was because I was short and the desk hit me there..the constipation, severe stomach cramps, the list keeps growing.. my marriage created more.. I chalked it up to stress. 2 dozen Dr's told me my ear pain was swimmers ear. Vertigo was debilitating. And at 62, I was diagnosed with fibro. It was like watching an adding machine tape go in my head. It all made sense. And all the Dr's really never put it together.. watching your channel has helped me understand pain like no one else. As a certified personal trainer I couldn't understand why I wasn't able to recover anymore. I couldn't even hold a broomstick and here was this PT telling me to work out.. the deer in the headlight look was again all too familiar. We can hope the medical field gets more training, but it comes slow. Now, we ban together and become our own advocates. Thank you for advocating and educating

I’ve thought for many years that fibromyalgia is an autoimmune condition. I don’t understand why there is a resistance to trying steroids or other medications to see if it helps relieve fibro suffering. It appears I may have developed an(other) autoimmune condition so might be able to get some treatment.

And earlier spd diagnosis

Love you!

Hi all!

Dr. Pammie, your information explains my situation well. My blood work has always been normal since i was first diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 1991 after years of symptoms. I was started on Xanax for six years for anxiety and insomnia, switched to Klonopin (daily/nightly benzo use for almost 29 years). Many years of doctors with a general disbelief that fibromyalgia never existed at all, yet it continued to worsen, like a blow torch in my neck across my upper back as I worked at my desk for 40 years. Had to lie down on floor during every 15 min break and 30 mInute lunch. Was finally declared disabled by Social Security in 2017. After almost 29 years of benzos, I told my doctor i wanted to stop taking them and she stopped me cold turkey with no mention of taper. That withdrawal is a long terrible story that I did survive (am now 45 months out), however all fibro symptoms worsened afterward. Last year a neurologist finally evaluated me more closely, diagnosed "idiopathic small fiber peripheral polyneuropathy." It causes worsened migraines (occipital neuralgia i was told), anxiety, gastroparesis, vomiting & cramping diarrhea, burning mouth syndrome and bruxism, pudendal neuralgia, burning-itching-zapping skin, extreme fatigue, urinary frequency and incontinence, pain all over like I've been knocked down and kicked in my back and ribs. At least I'm not diabetic or autoimmune and I'm glad for that. My life had become so limited, always working around my pain. Not how i saw myself being at 70, but here i am.

Dr. Pammie Jean, I had read either from Dr Lonsdale or Dr. Daphne Bryan, that low B1 can give the body trouble when it comes to processing B12. Something to think about.

Please research the elevated risk of dementia with these drugs

I have been diagnosed with fibro . I live in finland, and they made all the test needed blood test , electromiografy, brain MRI , lumbar puncture, and small fiber neuropathy. Everything came back normal, but i have shooting pain, burning pain , twiches , jumping legs , atticular pain , foot, pain , back pain , and neck pain . I got really bad, and my stress levels made everything worse .After the diagnosis, i did an intolerant food test( histamine ). I am intolerant, gluten, and milk , i change my diet. I am doing exercise and trying to get my stress off. I am feeling much better . Thanks for your videos that have helped me during the process of this terrible sickness. All my love to you .

at stage 4 😩

This is interesting I have been diagnosed with POTS and Small Fiber neuropathy but my symptoms are not lining up. I'm digging around to see if there are differences in symptoms between men and women as the pressure areas not common for me.

Does anyone suffer from ringing in the ears with fibromyalgia ?

What a lovely lady, thank you Dr I really enjoy your videos. I think one day they’ll find fibromyalgia iis an autoimmune disease.

Your puppy is sooooo sweet. Helps me to forget some of my pain.

Where do you get these green glasses??

Have you heard about red light therapy?? Green therapy? Ok . I'll have to check into that... thank you 🙂..

Try DHEA and Boron

Hi Dr. Pammie. I found this video after someone with fibromyalgia and latex allergy suggested I might also have fibromyalgia. I noticed that with latex allergy, there is also a sensitivity to wheat (and more,) because so many proteins in other foods are >70% similar to latex. My dad has celiac disease, but his marker isn't present in my blood. However, my entire life I've had a reaction to eating tomato (GERD) and I have severe reaction to shellfish as well as contact rashes with latex. However, my symptoms can be delayed sometimes hours or days from when the problem occurred, making them hard to diagnose. In the last few years my reactions have become more severe, especially to peanut and soy oil making me unable to eat fast food without stomach pain. Right now I don't think I have the intensity of pain that comes with fibromyalgia, but I do experience headaches and brain fog. Just yesterday it was very rainy and my legs felt like they had walked for miles and I had hand and foot pain as well, but I sat most of the day. I also have restless leg syndrome and sleep apnea (I have a CPAP.) I've tried so hard to control my sleep cycle but I wake up at 4 am no matter when I go to sleep so I only get about 5 usable hours out of my day. If I sleep from 4 am I can go 11 hours or more and not feel much better mentally. My family calls me lazy but I am just really really tired all the time and can't focus. Similar to fibro, there seems to be little research on latex. Like just recently I learned that I need to avoid paprika because it is similar to latex.

I take 1000 mg daily

Manganese also protects the nerves. And D3. Bc it is a auto immune disease. Jahovah gives good gifts.

Doctor Pammie Jean, i have costochondritis and fibromyalgia. When it flares up, im in pain at the moment.. Ecgs ect all fine.. It does scare me a lot when sore i dont eat.. Mine is in a lot a places but chest and back mostly

Fibromyalgia, IBS, arthritis, hypothyroidism, cognitive issues, chronic pain in many places, sleep problems, pre diabetes, been trying to get blood glucose down for the past year & lost 2 st 9 1/2lbs. My teeth are disintegrating and disappearing, it's now getting difficult to eat, I've had to stop eating my salads as the tooth pain is awful and I'm worried about eating more carbs again cos of the weight going back on. Lower back pain, but that may have been the start of the fibromyalgia as i was down by a car almost 40 years ago fractured my spine, twisted and ripped apart! I take Devil's Claw root and ashwagandha, medics keep trying to get me to stop the Devil's claw root, which is the only pain relief I have as harmaceuticals, chemicals give me bad side effects, along with fragrances etc. Since taking Devil's Claw, my IBS has in fact become much better, no one's going to stop me taking the one thing that helps to a degree. Ive probably forgotten somethings 😅

I had CPS so bad I couldn’t sleep and I wanted to died. I have about 20 or more malformations in my brain And I have fatigue burning, electrical and nerve numb pins and needles hands and feet, My first milestone for me was discovering Rhodiola herb. I was getting some relief from this herb. I take a bunch of different magnesiums now those help. Magnesium bisglycinate, oratate and malate help me the most I take the magnesium in the mornings. If I take magnesium at night, it messes up my sleep. I don’t get as deep asleep. Another mile stone I discovered was taking creatine, taurine and Yerba mate extract. This is just my experience. This is what helps me. I buy supplements in powder form and take them with water. I’ve taken so many supplements trying to figure out what will help me and finally I have it under manageable control. One more mile stone I discovered was buying two grounding sheets from the guy who invented them. I never wanna sleep without my grounding sheets ever again. I even took them on vacation with me. One is a fitted sheet and one is a top sheet. I hope this helps someone. Ive tried Hundreds of supplements, trying to figure this out.

I'm 60 yr old male, I had a stroke (brain bleed) in my right thalamus of brain, it has caused me this horrible but not excruciating nerve pain in my left leg that is there all the time and only worsens with movement such as walking or being touched. It sort of feels like denim rubbing across a raw sunburn.

I believe I have this. I thought it was something wrong with my breast because of the chest wall pain, praise GOD it’s not.

Do carnivore and forget about fybro

So basically it’s metabolic syndrome !

Sometimes I think 💭🤔 that, my dr. Thinks I'm making up my systems..

😂I have almost everything you read off... I'm just a ball of pain 😔

My joints are so bad sometimes I can't hardly move..

Number 2...

Well... it's good to see you again... Sence the last time I Saw you, alot has happened.. so...I went in for a CT scan for my stomach issues and found out that, I've got kidney stones.. have to get those removed.. and I was on ozempic for my diabetes.. had to stop it .. every time I ate something I would be running to the restroom.. adleast 4-5 time's.. tried it for almost a year.. 😢😢I couldn't take it no more 😢. Gained all my weight back.. and I'm still having side effects 😞. Also I have acid reflux.. and I was taking Tums at night, but I thought 💭 about my kidney stones and stopped it.. now my gastroenterologist wants me to get a test done. Putting a camera down my throat.. OMG I'm also losing hair.. from the ozempic..😢..I'm so tired.. especially my stomach issues...

When I was 5 or 6 years old (male) I was diagnosed by the family doctor with "growing pains and rheumatism" and told the symptoms would abate as i grew older. I'm not sure they ever did but were more likely to have been masked by other circumstances and coping behaviours. The last 15 years have been particularly chronic, bedridden at points, a string of false diagnoses and offers of procedures that never really needed to happen. Finally - some 50 years after my initial childhood precursor-to-fibro-diagnosis a neurologist diagnosed fibro a couple of months ago. Had any of the health professionals I spoke to on the journey been clued up enough to connect or even research what i was telling them about the childhood diagnosis (made in a time before computers remember) I feel I might have been spared a lot of agony and uncertainty. Now I am trying to navigate my way through spares health resources here in the UK, experiencing the dismissive medical attitude you mention here, even after a Neurologist signed off on it. Long way to go in terms of taking this health crisis seriously.

Very interesting. I was diagnosed as Pre diabetic, I changed my diet to a low carb & intermittent fasting diet, I started to feel better within a few days. I have more energy, better sleep, still broken, but better, my severe muscle spasms are far less too & I've lost 2 stone 8 1/2lbs. I'm having to rethink what to eat as my very worn, sensitive teeth hurt so much trying to chew salads daily.

A full video on the chronic overlapping pain conditions will be out on Friday. Have a lovely day! 💕

Unfortunately I have eight of the ten.
