Holly is living with fibromyalgia. A film by Nicholas Easter.

I have had fibromyalgia for 20+ years. Although there is no cure there are a lot of treatments that can help substantially. I used to not hardly be able to get out of bed, but now I can dance, work and play as long as I don't overdue it or over extend myself. The main supplement that moved me to cane and wheelchair bound is MSM-Methylsulfonylmethane. It is a sulfur derivative. No, I'm not a distributor, I am just letting you know what worked for me and a lot of others. I take 3,000mg's in the morning and 3,000mg's at night. Capsule or powdered form only - not in a hard tablet because the absorbtion rate is poor. I did research on this for years and Doctors just don't know how it feels and that doesn't help.

I have fibromyalgia, I know what you are going through. No one seems to understand the problem. No the doctors, not my family, and sometimes not even my friends.
