Every symptom of Fibromyalgia is also a symptom of a bad back and a bad neck.
I think the reason for this, is that Fibromyalgia is… a bad back and a bad neck.
It is commonly known that sciatic pain down the leg is caused by the back and that there is usually nothing wrong with the leg at all and what
you are feeling in the leg is just referred pain. Here is 30 years of sciatic getting fixed in 3 sessions of the ASMI treatment
As the whole body has nerves flying out of the spine at every level, you can get such sciatica-esque referred pain all over the body, with or without pain also in the back itself.
In addition to such referred pain a bad neck can cause migraines, eye & ear problems, a bad back can cause digestive problems, period pains... etc etc.
With fibromyalgia it looks like most of the spine has a problem and so the pain problems are everywhere around the body. One stand out symptom, that is a bit distinctive to Fibromyalgia, is right shoulder pain that extends into the arm pit and to the front of the rib cage. As they have a neck problem as well, this is not too unexpected, but quite why the right side… I’m not sure yet. Here is a shoulder problem getting fixed… by fixing the neck and upper back.
Another feature of Fibromyalgia is the very heavy grittiness in the tissues of the hands, feet and sometimes knees. What’s going on with this ?
What I think is happening is this: There is twice as much lymph on the body as blood. While the blood moves round at about 5 litres per minute, thanks to the pump power of the heart, the lymph flows at about only 5 litres per day. Lymph does not have a central heart but the individual lymph vessels have muscle cells in them and they beat (not all at the same rate around the body) and this beating helps move the lymph. No one actually knows for sure where the pacemaker is for this beat. I think, especially from what I’ve seen of the grit build up in Fibromyalgia patients, that part, if not all, of the control of this beat is the Sympathetic Nervous System. This is the sort of job the Sympathetic Nervous System does in other parts of the body like with it’s monitoring and control of the processes, state and repair of the digestive system. I think what happens with Fibromyalgia is there is a major physical trauma injury. The spine gets injured and this switches off this lymph pump pacemaker in the Sympathetic Nervous System, as the main hardware for the Sympathetic Nervous System are the mini-brains – called ganglion – that lie long the spine; so the lymph vessels no longer pump properly or at all. It is like when the bin men go on strike. No one notices for a few days, or even a couple of weeks, but as time goes on and the local bins start to overflow it becomes a nightmare. This matches the delay and the build up of symptoms of Fibromyalgia in the months following the trauma injury.
What about an emotional trauma ? For introverts, stress will often cause an involuntary tightening of the spine. Shoulders get hunched etc. This tightening has been measured and it can be very strong and persistent. So yes emotional trauma can cause Fibromyalgia… but still via a physical route – the crushing forced on the spine.
Tissue fluids always have a lot of calcium in them and the rule of the body is not only “use it or lose it” but “use it or calcify it” and so very quickly old stale tissue fluids that have not been pumped away gets calcified. Tendons and ligaments get calcium build up like old boats covered in barnacles. So the pain that you get with Fibromyalgia is not then just referred pain but pain from your tissues becoming calcified over time. So fixing Fibromyalgia is a two stage process – the first part fixes the back and neck to get rid of the referred pain and get the Sympathetic Nervous System working properly again – and this can happen quickly. The 2nd part requires a bit of time – as the lymph pump, that has now started to work again, has to pump out of lots of old gunk that has built up over the years and a fair amount of local therapy work where the pain is to help de-calcify the tissues is also needed.
Dislocations of joints are sometimes an issue with Fibromyalgia. What’s going on here ? Well several routes can cause this:
- As your digestive system is compromised – because the spine has been injured – then your body might not be making proteins well enough to rebuild your tissues properly
- As your Sympathetic Nervous System is compromised then it will not be doing it’s usual bang up to date job of monitoring the state of your tissues and controlling the repair mechanisms
- As your lymph system is compromised then removal of old waste will interfere with new material arriving to rebuild your tissues
All of these, in different measures with different people in different parts of the body can contribute to weaker than normal ligaments and tendons and hence dislocations.
Skin tingling is sometimes an issue with Fibromyalgia. What’s going on here ?
Well there is the direct route – where the tissues in the area have become calcified and so are irritated; and also the indirect route – where the spinal nerves are irritated as they are squashed by you having a bad back, so it another-part-of-the-body version of pins and needles
Chronic Fatigue, brain fog… and the rest. You can chop the head of a chicken or a goat and it will run round for ages. One of the things this shows is that many processes that people thought “go to the brain, get processed and the brain sends a signal back to… actually works like this: “Goes to the Sympathetic Nervous System ganglion along the spine get processed by these mini-brains and the ganglion sends a signal back to… So damage to the spine causes damage to the Sympathetic Nervous System and there is not one cell in the body that does not receive signals from these ganglion along the spine. This is why people with Fibromyalgia also have a whole host of problems… but they are fixable… like Chronic Fatigue
Can Fibromyalgia be fixed ? Well if it’s a bad back and a bad neck – which I’m sure it is – and backs that are far worse, like this, can be fixed using the GoodBack Protocol
then yes ! …and this video shows the GoodBack Protocol in action treating Fibromyalgia… and shows the results:
