A Great Read! "All in My Mind" by Jennifer Busch

I had the opportunity to speak with Jennifer Busch, the author of "All in My Mind." She has Adrenal Fatigue, Chronic Fatigue, and Fibromyalgia. Her book is a very honest recount of her recovery. She shares her good days and bad days, revealing her inner self. I found it to be a book written from the heart and I even teared up a bit at the end. It is also very insightful in many different ways. I feel it is a must read for anyone living with a chronic illness. It will give you insight to some areas we are all probably aware of yet might deliberately avoid. I know for myself I have thought about some of those things, yet hesitate to act upon those feelings sometimes. Thank you Jennifer for sharing with us.

Must See Video Clip on RSD / CRPS

It is sad that so many doctors still do not know about RSD/CRPS. Next time you are at your doctor's - ask him if he knows what it is and help spread the word so people don't have to wait so long to find out that is what they have. September is pain awareness month - let us all do our part. This video is very informative on Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, it reviews the symptoms, the treatments, and explains how the pain becomes its own disease.

Sore No More

If you haven't heard of "Sore No More" or "Sombra" Warm or Cool Therapy Gel for pain relief you should check it out. Both products are made by the same people. Sore No More is the retail product line and "Sombra" is usually sold via health professionals. Either one works good for pain relief. I often rub it all over my left leg (which is the side I have RSD on) and it helps with the pain and allows me to sleep better. I have had several friends in the pain support group try it and they too like it so I thought I would share it with you.

Have you Heard of Curamin?

I don't know how many of you have heard of Curamin.  It is an herbal analgesic and several people I know have tried it and thinks it works great!  I have tried it and if I need to take something I prefer to take something naturally so Curamin works for me.  You can check out more information if you are interested and locate a store near you at http://www.curamin.com/
