Yes & no… Yes, cos CoQ10’s always “good”. No, at least not yet, because it may cost you time and money, and I get the feeling you want something quickly effective and not just “anything good”.
Knowledge of fibro isn’t necessary for physios who listen. It being uncomfy and costly is reason enough for stopping now. Praps try a different one later and any other “physios” now that do something different?
Acupuncture & TCM herbs: Good to hear, I haven’t tried again for fibro because I can’t drink their herbs hot, which they want AFAIK. Acupuncture: My Chinese acupuncture now has been helping considerably for two weeks now, far more than the stints before, increased my suppleness greatly, improved energy/fatigue from 10% to 20/25% (40% is my aim) up to now.
Food diary not possible : What a low of absolute rubbish your gynecologist told you there! Yes, food can take up to a few days to get completely thru your system. But to conclude that all reactions come later is nonsense. My most complicated one was finding out that tomatoes caused my rectum to burn 24 hours later. But aside from that almost all my reactions (around 10 types) come inside of 20 minutes to 2 hours after the trigger, seldom 3 or 4. And he can have it from me in gold capital letters: I’ve sorted out at least 100 food triggers and can write an essay about the reaction to each food. Dunno if you read my blog - I put up my current food list, around 50, on Saturday, April 2nd… Not saying that it’s good for everyone, just that I know exactly what works for me and nothing else does.
I have found that waiting for docs’ scans & ideas is usually a waste of time as they usually don’t find anything or can’t explain it or do anything about it if they do. Also I haven’t got time to wait, I do everything parallel. That way I’ve fully worked thru two big conditions in 2 years, with 50 docs and 100s of treatments. Of course we need to focus on one thing, prioritize. But having to wait for one doc always gave me room to do something else while I’m waiting. When the results are there, that’s when I go back to that one. But if buying isn’t the situation, then I’d use youtube to try exercises, stretches and acupressure, plus the education for the symptom I’m focusing on. That won’t harm even if if the scan & x-ray tell you what it is and what to do, which is highly unlikely… They will likely have a sledgehammer (e.g. med) for you to shatter your body with so you forget what you asked them about…
