You'll see on the home page that I have fibromyalgia, but I didn't include the details initially that for years before I had a diagnosis I was run up the flagpole of traditional medicine as though this might be MS.

On my way to the open house, I stopped by Vitamin Cottage a read more »

I loved this teleseminar! Holy guacamole does she download a LOT of amazing information. I'm a fast typist and I couldn't keep up to make some notes, but I thought if I did a little summary recap of it, you might be inclined to take the time to learn here from Deirdre and follow the link to her website and get involved if it resonates for you.
