The medicine that they gave me makes me feel horrible and it isn't helping me anyway. Please someone let me know what they do or use for treatment options.

I am a Registered Nurse who has had fibromyalgia for almost 3 years. I have been seeing an internal medicine doc the entire time. Besides prescribing pain meds, antidepressants, a muscle relaxer and Lyrica, my doc really hasn't been able to improve my health status. I have a pharmacy of meds to take every day; and I just think we are putting a band-aid on the symptoms, not treating the cause. I am almost positive I am also dealing with myofascial pain syndrome and chronic fatigue syndrome. That is a little history, so here is my question. Has anyone had any exposure to the Fibro and Fatigue clinics? I am aware they test for a LOT of problems and they do unconventional treatments that work for some people. But my problem is the cost of the visits. I was told it is almost 0 a vistit for the 1st two visits. On top of that, it is cash up front, and they can't even file on your insurance. Why is that? But then again, I would gladly spend 0 to get my life back.

Opinions on seeing Ayurveda doctor?

I'm 20 years old and am suffering from peripheral neuropathy. I finally went to an internal medicine doctor because my my numbness and sensitiviy were getting worse. He has ran many blood tests (auto immune, iron levels, vitamin levels, blood cell counts, blood sugar etc) to find what is causing it but nothing has turned up abnormal. Other than this I am completely healthy and would prefer to go to alternative medicine for treatment than waste more money and not finding answers.

I wanted some opinions/experiences people have had seeing an Ayurveda doctor. It would be especially helpful if someone with peripherial neuropathy has been to one too! Thankyou! Or if you have any suggestions on where I should go from there, they are welcomed too.
* I'm not really looking for religious answers about finding God.. this is about alternative medicine, not christianity.
