It is so uplifting to read of a mum who has no many setbacks but refuses to let them keep her down.
Blog Detail
Brain Foggles
http://brainfoggles.com
I’m a Christian wife and mom of two daughters. My daughters are 12 years apart so that keeps me quite busy and a little crazy at times. I do too much and have trouble keeping it together. My family and church are my priorities, but I seem to get that confused a lot. I also volunteer online, at my church and at my daughter’s school.
I have multiple autoimmune diseases: Myasthenia Gravis, Sjogren’s Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Ulcerative Colitis. As much as I don’t like to dwell on this it’s a huge part of my life that I can’t avoid.
The name of my blog, Brain Foggles relates to the “brain fog” or problems I have with my memory, concentration and doing things I did before I was diagnosed and due to the many medications I take - like keeping track of things on my calendar, balancing my checkbook, etc. Sometimes this bothers me but I’ve come to accept it. Things could be so much worse.

Great name for a magazine! I found a number of clinical trials concerning treatment of fibromyalgia: http://clinicaltrial.gov/ct2/results?term=fibromyalgia
Also, people have been treated with stem cells for MS, fibromyalgia, diabetes, etc and shown improvement. One 77 year old patient received stem cells with this procedure:
Remove 5 cc's of fat removed from tummy fat which
Stem cells were separated from the fat cells
Stem cells frozen to -196 Celsius degrees.
Grew stem cells to over 400 million
Implanted 100 million directly into face
Implanted 200 million in arm intravenously on August 24th
He had a recovery rate of 95%, minimal to now pain in legs, sleeps through the night with no cramps, recovery from anemia, etc.
Finally, there is a patient advocacy institute (Repair Stem Cell Institute http://repairstemcells.org) that can pair fibromyalgia patients with the best treatment center for them and assist them through the entire process for free: http://repairstemcells.org/Treatment/Diseases-Treated.aspx
