Guaifenesin Protocol and Counseling

I started taking Mucinex again. It is defnitely working. You can always tell when you start going through that reversal period, when symptoms get worse at first. It stinks, but it's worth it. My anxiety is insane, pain is excruciating, fatigue is frustrating, but I'm forcing myself to get out of bed and do things every day.

I have an appointment with a counselor for Monday. I'm really excited, because it's been awhile since I've seen one and I think it really helps. My fibro symptoms don't get better, but it helps me mentally and emotionally. Fibro is very difficult to deal with, especially for someone who is a thinker. Physical anxiety can cause and anxious mind, and the knowledge of how to do things combined with the physical inability to do them is obviously the perfect recipe for depression.

Treatments & Medications

Here is a list of treatments and medications that I've tried so far. Each one I tried for at least 3 months (or as long as I could), and many helped minimize one or two symptoms, but none of them are cures. I really think that a combination of the Gerson Therapy and the Guaifenisin Protocol will be the best, but it will be really expensive.
