Fibromyalgia Pain? How To Beat It! - Dr. Mandell

Actors are getting oscars , while doctors like you , don't get recognised , for the wonderful work you do to help people , god bless you all🙏🏾

Dr. Mandell, I cannot thank you enough my friend. After 7 years of fibromyalgia hell which developed after a car crash I had in 2015, I am finally shedding the last few bits of it's evil wrath. I had ignored all symptoms and was in complete denial for the last few years, but working long hours in finance in your mid 20s can destroy you. I am now 33 and being so positive instead of wanting the years back, and that's my final indicator that I have kicked it to the curb. No more panic attacks and thinking all of the small things are huge. I had every symptom plus many more. As more time went on, I developed a shoulder impingement, and my SI joint became displaced. Trigger fingers in both hands and extreme tightness everywhere. Awful sinuses and terrible nasal pain, extreme tooth aches, lack of hunger, diarrhea, vomiting, hemmerhoids, bunions ingrown toenails, TMJ, closed throat, forward head posture irregular breathing, excruciating headaches almost daily, neck aches, reduced socialness and always grouchy for no reason. Made excuses for not being able to go somewhere and then stayed at home alone and lay around which just caused more pain. would stretch and stretch but no relief. I had watched almost all of your videos for other posture related and breathing issues and they were all a great help. Step by step I worked on all that I could. The worst part of all of this was I could barely breathe and I was always dizzy. Thought I almost died from choking on water and occasionally vomit since I could not stomach much. The worse part of this was breathing and I realized that the key to beating all of this was to first wake the diaphragm back up since it is attached to many of the large muscle groups. I figured this out a few weeks ago at the tail end of my 4 month journey to fight it. Then the AMAZING days started happening. More energy and less negativity it's all amazing. Can't believe how long I've been suffocating my body but now I'm seeing hearing tasting feeling life in 4K! It's a dream! The more I watched your videos and the more I worked on blow strength especially the healthier I got and the taller I stood. I'm still getting a little taller today at the tail end of it's defeat! Life was so dark looking back now and it's so amazing to just be alive! Would love to talk to you further about this if you ever have time. I feel like I have defied the odds and can now do anything I want in life! I feel wiser and stronger than ever and it happens so fast, u just need to FIGHT HARD! For anyone else suffering out there, make sure u work the diaphragm. It's A BIG step to help loosen everything else up. Then hit those trigger points and keep breathing! The points should start tightening a lot slower after you've stretched them out post diaphragm work. Hold good posture as much as you can and blow out while stretching or working trigger points with your fingers. I quit my job in December, worked on this every single day. In the beginning it was so hard and spent every bit of energy I had which was not much. Even if I did one exercise and was exhausted I made myself fight to do another and another. Make yourself put beating this first before anything. It's extremely hard and emotional but YOU CAN DO IT! THIS AWFUL SYNDROME IS BEATABLE! Just because most people don't beat it, don't believe anyone out there that says it's not beatable! I didn't know I had fibromyalgia until about a week ago, maybe it's good that I didn't because most say there isn't a cure. Then I found Dr mandell and he helped save my life. I knew that physical activity would save my life. I didn't want to lose my girlfriend and thank God she hung in there with me while I was losing my mind and body. Now I have so much energy and I feel amazing! Breathing is beautiful! Can't stop loving everything and my new life! Thank you again Dr. Mandell! With your help I have built my health education in a huge way and I'm so excited for a new healthy future! EVERYONE, LIFE IS A GIFT, don't ever stop fighting to keep that gift as healthy and happy as possible!!!!!!

All fibro patients present with disrupted sleep, chronic pain, mind fog, high heart rate, and memory problems. That's a given for just about every single fibro patient there is. I know I am one.

Just the slightest touch can hurt when having an episode of Fibromyalgia

My sister who was a career RN had about absolutely no belief that Fibromyalgia existed... until she developed it. Total tune changer.

You are not only best doctor, you are a kind human being too. God bless your family 🙏🙏

Dear Doc, I must say that I have learned more from You than all of the MD's that I have seen in the last 30 yrs! Bless your Generous Heart and Thank You for sharing your extensive knowledge and experience!! With Love and Good Vibes, Dyane

'A Group of symptoms that falls under a Syndrome'...The BEST DESCRIPTION of FIBROMYALGIA I have ever heard of. Thank you Doctor for highlighting the importance of misdiagnosis of this condition...The same applies for IBS.👌👌

This is what I needed man . Doctors literally keep brushing me off and have no clue in how to treat me . I'm going to try my best to be stress free and eat healthy . Good health is better then drugs and quick dopamine rushes ...

I wish all doctors had the knowledge, morality, commitment that you do. Thank you!

There is so much genuine concern in the way to talk to us, I can always feel your positive vibes, God bless you doc!

I have suffered from Fibro for many, many years. Thank you for your neck/sinus videos! They really help with the pain.

I have CFS and fibromyalgia and Epstein barr and I have every symptom on your list and I must commend you because you are on point on every detail about this painful dissorder. Wish I knew about this 35years ago. Thanks for your work and for finally announcing to the world that this is very real and we're not crazy about how we feel. The worst feeling is when you explain your symptom and they think it petty or overboard. And yes , anyone would lead themselves to depression especially when the many physicians out there think you making it up. If only they were in my shoes so they can experience it even one day then it would be worth every pain we go through. Hope many drs pay more attention to us.

Tired of having pain. Slowing my life down and all that great stuff you said 🥰👌🏽

Love your passion for helping others!

I will always love you Dr. MANDEL. I was a patient of yours many years ago. I tell you I havent found a Doctor like yourself. I have been following your videos and appreciate you so much. I've been diagnosed with frybromilga and this video will surely help me feel better. Blessings to you. Your a great man.

Much appreciation for all of your time and effort in giving advice and suggestions. It is very helpful!

Thank you so much Im glad i found your site..I have fibro 15 years and what you say makes so much sense..lots of love from Ireland.

I love Dr. Mandell for a few reasons ... one is that his advise can be extremely helpful and two is that he is sincere wanting to be of service to those that are suffering. Thank you Dr. Mandell.

I was diagnosed in 1992, at the same time, same doctor said I have Hypothyroidism, started me on synthroid...I can tell when its going to rain...as soon as it starts coming down, I feel relief... I'm on the vicious pain/fatigue cycle for years. But, when I feel good, get outta my way, I'll spend all that good time cleaning and catching up till the cycle starts again...I can't get going in the morning until I shower in hot water and stretch...massage does help, finding someone who knows how, is hard. Thank you for a informative video👍
