Fibromyalgia - Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
By Denise Watson

2 years ago I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia (FMS) and Chronic Fatigue Immune Deficiency Syndrome, (CFIDS). At the time of my diagnosis, I had been searching out answers to my physical problems for years by the time I was finally diagnosed.

According to my doctors, my future was very uncertain, particularly around the area of my ability to continue to work and lead an active life. It was suggested that I consider giving up my job, and going on disability.

As a small business owner and a very active person of 38 years old at the time, this news was devastating, as was how I was feeling. Without going into extreme detail, my immune system was flat, and I was unable to fight off infections and pain.

In January of 1996, 1 was bedridden for 2 1/2 weeks, without the strength to stand at my kitchen counter and get a glass of water. The muscle pain had become too severe that I suffered spasms that nearly crippled me, and the fatigue was unbelievable. My mother moved from Florida to Chicago to be with me through this. She was a Godsend, as I wasn't able to grocery shop, cook or maintain myself without help.

Previous to my collapse, I had researched, called and visited "specialists" across the country. My medical bills and travel expenses were soaring. I did the traditional approaches, a variety of drugs to decrease pain, increase Serotonin production, as well as self-injecting Gamma Globalin, B-12, B-1 and B-6. Results were temporary. I then tried Homeopathy with some relief of pain, but continued fatigue.

When I was finally able to return to work, it was for 2 hours at a time, then 1/2 day. I still needed help preparing meals etc. When I was finally able to work a full day, it was not without taking naps in my office both in the morning and afternoon.

In October 10 1996, my mother brought me a bottle of Noni and I must adrnit that I took it very reluctantly, expecting no results. And initially, I didn't notice any. After much persuasion from my mother, I increased the amount of Noni that I was taking.

Within 3 months my energy level was so increased that I was no longer napping at work and I was suddenly able to stay awake after work. Previously, when I came home from work I would sleep until the next morning. My life consisted of just trying to make it through a day.

The next thing I noticed was that my pain was decreasing. It was miraculous!

Two weeks ago, I visited my local doctor. She was astonished at the change in me. We didn't do a lab work-up at that time because I showed no physical signs of either illness. No swollen lymph glands could be detected, my lungs and heart were excellent, and I did not react physically to be the muscle tests she performed. She was stunned and astonished. She asked me what I had been doing and I told her that I had stopped all injections and that I was drinking a product called Noni juice. Needless to say she told me to continue and she requested literature.

Thank you for the introduction to Noni, my life has been changed!
