Patient discussion about intermediate.

Q. is there any connection between the unexplained pain of fibromyalgia and cancer? I've heard about fibromyalgia only recently as my cousin was diagnosed with it and some symptoms remind me- unfortunately, of those my uncle had when they found out he had cancer.

A. When I was diagnosed the neurologist went by some guide lines for pain points and I had had numerous test for different things. I personally could not see a connection for what I had been and am going through to cancer. A lot of people are not familiar with fibromyalgia because for years it was "unexplained" pain. Or we were told it was in our head! It is real, it is painful and I hope you can be a support to your cousin. We all need a shoulder from time to time. I wish your cousin the best of luck!

Q. what is the connection between gout and drinking cokes? There was an article in your magazine earlier this year about how drinking cokes could affect gout....can I get a copy of that artical?

Q. Is there a connection between Epstein-Barr Virus and Fibromyalgia and where can I find information? I was diagnosed with EBV 10 years ago and got diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and Depression 5 yrs ago-is there a connection and if so where can I obtain information. If anyone can help-Thank You!

A. EBV is a herpes virus. And there are arguments from both sides if it has a connection or not to Fibromyalgia, some articles say that , some say the other. The truth is that for the patient it doesn’t mater. If you have it you have to deal with it and it doesn’t mater how it showed up. This mater to the researches.

They also looked to Bali Flaki, a hawk, to guide and help them in many ways, and they expressed gratitude to him, but we do not think that they conceive him as a single great spirit, as some of the other tribes tend to do; they rather look on the hawks as messengers and intermediators between themselves and Bali Penyalong, to which a certain undefined amount of power is delegated.
