The New Fibromyalgia Remedy: Stop Your Pain Now with an Anti-Viral Drug Regimen [Paperback]

Daniel C. Dantini MD (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 1, 2008

Debilitating pain and tenderness in muscles, ligaments, and tendons are the typical symptoms of fibromyalgia, and this guide by a medical researcher of the disease dismisses traditional treatment—heat, exercise, and rest—in favor of antiviral medications that often provide immediate relief and eventual complete recovery. Offering new hope for advances in treatment, the discussion covers the difficulty of diagnosing fibromyalgia, the overlaps with chronic fatigue syndrome, the unrelatedness of arthritis, and the possibility that food allergies may trigger attacks. Patient success stories along the way encourage readers while data samples, references, and appendices provide clinical details.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't Knock it Till You Try It! A Patient's Comments., January 8, 2009

If you have not read The New Fibromyalgia Remedy, or given the protocol a try, then you are not serious about feeling better. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 1983 and although in serious pain had no desire to become a test subject for MD's with no answers. Therefore, I coped. I took no medications. I filled my library with books on the subject. Soon, they all began to sound the same. Everyone had a theory. Then I finally became bedridden with pain and fatique, an unacceptable position for someone doing physical labor running a horse farm. Dr. Dantini's book came out last year and I can't begin to tell you how exciting it was to read of the food/viral connection. His rationale made more sense to me than anything I had read in the past, so I picked up the telephone for a long distance appointment. He's easy to talk to because he has been there himself. My tests came back positive to just about everything. With Dr. Dantini's help and my attention to following directions, guess what? I have my life back!

Dr. Dan Dantini's book builds on Dr. Bihari's discoveries of the anti-viral properties of Low Dose Naltrexone in "Up the Creek with a Paddle: Beat MS and Many Autoimmune Disorders with Low Dose Naltrexone" by Mary Anne Boyle Bradley.

Both Dr. Bihari and Dr. Dantini have discovered that anti viral medications have significant benefits for fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, and chronic fatigue syndrome.

Combine Dr. Dantini's discoveries with the reports of James Schaller in "Babesia" and "2008 Lyme Disease Annual Report" by Rosner, and a new regimen for treating Lyme disease and Babesia is starting to take shape.

I was sick for 10 years with debilitating fibromyalgia and had almost given up hope. I happened to stumble on Dr. Dantini's fibromyalgia website and decided to give his regime a try. Within months after following his antiviral and dietary prescriptions I slowly started to realize I was becoming well! The dizziness was gone, the brain fog was gone, and the fatigue was gone. I had had so many doctors and so many diagnoses before doctor Dantini it was just pitiful. They ranged from meniere's disease to "it's all in your head", to depression. Before this awful disease struck I had never been depressed a day in my life. The truth is - Dr. Dantini is the only one that knows what is going on with fibromyalgia, even when I told my primary doctor and my rheumatologist about the regime they didn't even want to consider it. It reminds me of the doctor who suggested washing hands between delivering babies to decrease infection in postpartum women and got laughed out of town. Now, hand washing is standard practice but it took years to become standard practice. Other doctors don't always want to take the time to learn or even acknowledge there is new research and new treatments available if they hadn't been trained in them in medical school. It takes about 20 years for research to become incorporated into standard practice. The question is - do you have 20 years to feel lousy? Dr. Dantini is a maverick and someone who thinks out of the box.

His regime isn't easy. You have to take the medication, you have to follow the rotation diet, and you have to give up foods you love. You have to read every food label every time in order to become well. You have to do your part for this remedy to work. But it works - and there is no one else out there (that I know of) who offers anything to help those of us who have been diagnosed and struggle with fibromyagia. Thank God for Dr. Dantini, his research, his remedy, and his original thinking.
