FOUNDER'S CORNER September 26, 2007    Stop a Cold, Prevent a Relapse For patients with Fibromyalgia or ME/CFS, catching a cold is fraught with dire risks. Consequences can include cold symptoms that are far more severe and last longer than in non-patients, but the scariest risk is that a cold can lead to an FM flare or full blown ME/CFS relapse. Patients need to exercise extra caution in order to reduce this risk, and fortunately there are some amazingly effective things you can do to stop a cold and prevent a relapse.   ARTICLES, EVENTS, SOLUTIONS See 5 more new articles    Q & A with FM/ME/CFS Specialist Lucinda Bateman, MD Dr. Bateman, director of the Fatigue Consultation Clinic in Salt Lake City, answers patients' and professionals' questions about diagnosis, treatment, drugs, trials, massage, pregnancy, exercise, MD education, flu shots, shingles, waxing/waning benefits of therapies, and much more. Meet Yvonne Keeny - Turning 'Cope' to 'Hope' for Thousands of Patients Yvonne Keeny has spent the past 10 years disseminating information about effective natural/alternative methods that Fibromyalgia & ME/CFS patients can use to battle their illness. The patient support and education organization she founded is rooted in a network of local groups. Probiotics - Our Silent Partners for Good Health Eminent immunologist Gary Huffnagle, PhD, shares fascinating new research about the roles "friendly" bacteria play in our digestive tract to support overall health, and the impact of bacterial imbalances owing to antibiotic overuse, stress, and poor diet.

It involves Russia." - Woody Allen     Chances Our new life with chronic pain will be filled with chances for us to take. We may fall many times, only to be presented with a chance to rise to our feet and try again. We will have the chance to grow physically, emotionally, and spiritually. We will have the chance to share with others who have chronic pain and meet new friends. We will have more chances and opportunities in our new life that at times may seem overwhelming to us. But we don't need to take every chance or opportunity that is put in our path, nor do we have to take all our chances in one day. Just one chance at a time. From Living With Chronic Pain One Day At A Time by Mark Allan Zabawa. *Cannot be combined with other offers.
