Meet Brittany: Severe fibromyalgia pain and fatigue resolve.

I’m a 28 year–old woman with three active kids. I developed fibromyalgia in my upper back after the birth of my first child in 2003. The pain and spasms progressed into deep throbbing pain within three years and after my second child. Spasms have gotten so bad and so frequent that I fear them. The longest one lasted 14 hours and put me in the ER. When it was over, I threw up everywhere, slept for a week and lost 10 pounds. My most recent spasm was about 6 months ago. They tend to last about two to three hours but can last longer. Sometimes I went months without them and then there are months I have them every week. When I say spasms, think of having the wind knocked out of you while being crushed by a truck and someone twisting a knife in and out of your shoulder blade. It was that bad. I felt like a 70 year-old trapped in a thirty-year old body.

My fatigue was so severe, I fell asleep while driving. As soon as I got up in the morning, putting on clothes was a chore. Even though I had love in my life, and children and a wonderful husband, I don’t understand how I lived so many years feeling so miserable and NO ONE HELPED ME! Doctors are so careless! I gained 20 pounds in six months doing nothing different. My skin was getting bad. Dry but breaking out.

I had to take Tramodol prescription pain killer. Then, in looking up fibromyalgia on the web, I came across iodine as a therapy. It seemed cheap enough, so the first thing I did was apply some Lugol’s Iodine to my foot. Then I started taking it orally. Everything changed. One day I realized I forgot to take my pain meds.

Within two weeks of starting iodine, I feel like I have gotten my life back. I feel ashamed to have lived in a stupor like a zombie for so long, just trying to get by each day. Even in the midst of detox symptoms, I have done more in two weeks than I have in the last year! I feel awesome! I LOVE life! I am losing inches, not weight yet, but who cares!? I have apologized profusely to my husband for being so sick and lazy and thanked him for loving me so much. He basically took care of me and three kids for the last three years as I had been progressively getting worse.

Even though I am so happy now, I want to cry for my old self and the years wasted. I want to help those around me. I see obese women and tired men and feel so bad for them. I want to help! I’m awake and alive! I’m even smarter. Now I realize that it is not healthy to accept life-deteriorating health just due to aging. A 60-year-old shouldn’t have ever felt the way I did.
