In a moment of synchronicity, I turned on the television to find the Oprah Winfrey show with Dr. Oz of the YOU books on it. I haven’t watched Oprah in ages, but I was curious to hear about the new YOU book. I love their diet and exercise approach to wellness and it was amazing to see the dramatic improvements to the participants’ health. It was in the final 10 minutes of the show that it happened… a woman suffering from Fibromyalgia said she was out of pain for the first time in 7 years. Dr. Oz announced that while the medical community used to not admit they exist, Fibromyalgia and CFS are do exist and they now have solutions.
“I hope a lot of the audience members’ eyes [are open] now to a problem that afflicts 8 million Americans,” Dr. Oz says. “You don’t have to live with that agony.”
If that wasn’t enough, Dr. Oz said that Dr. Teitelbaum who specializes in Fibromyalgia opened his eyes. This was amazing to me because it was reading Dr. Teitelbaum’s book From Fatigued to Fantastic that led to the second significant sea change in my health. (My introduction to Hellerwork created the first.) I was also reading Fibromyalgia & Muscle Pain: Your Self-Treatment Guide by Leon Chaitow N.D., D.O. Both books helped me to put together a treatment plan that helped me pull myself out of the last major downturn into being in the best health I’ve been in over 10 years and returning to a normal life. I’m still working hard to continue to improve and keep any major downturns at bay.
