FIBROMYALGIA HANDBOOK is based on a true life story about an affected girl and the way she has overcome the disease. This story was written by the main character when she was only 13 years old, and it shows her feelings at that time.
MARTA
HELLO,
My name is Marta, when I was 11 years old I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue and I have overcome it. This is my story.
I want to tell you my story, because lots of people will identify with it. I think that all the people who suffer this illness feel the same way, more or less.
Everything started about three years ago, well, the truth is that we started to notice the symptoms a lot sooner, when I was only 3 years old.
As I said before, three years ago I was coming back home from a handball game with my friends, just like most people, we returned home very tired, but I always felt more tired than normal.
But, the worst was yet to come.
On day, on a WiseMenâs play, I participated as a page-boy, I remember going home afterwards, I felt like I wasnât going to be able to make it there because of the enormous pain I was feeling on my legs, and because I was feeling so terribly tired.
All these symptoms puzzled us, my parents and me, because it wasn´t normal that a girl my age often asked for a wheelchair because I couldn´t move. Some people told me that I was lazy, I had to hear that even from some teachers and doctors.
My mother was starting to think that it could be fibromyalgia, but we had little information about it, so we decided to go to the hospital. After a whole week of stay there, the doctors finally confirmed that it was in fact fibromyalgia. At first, I didn´t know how to react because I had never heard that word before, but a month went by and I started to wish I had never heard about this illness, because I realized that it was going to last a lifetime and if I had to assume this illness, I would have to put up with mockery coming from people all around me.
When I thought my life was coming to an end, and considered I would never be able to live as a normal human being again, my mom found a book that talked about blood groups. We had already tried many things, so why not try one more? We had nothing to lose. At first, it was hard to get used to the diet, we started trying out different types of food, and the truth is that it didnât taste very good. Months passed by, and I could walk again and do things just like all the rest, so we decided to continue with the diet.
When I saw that I could run again, without having any contractures or without getting any broken fibers, I suddenly became a happier girl, I was happy before then, but I felt like now I had a greater desire to live, to travel, or to go out with my friends at night.
At this moment, I feel very proud about all my parents and my friends have done for me: they all decided to eat the same food I ate, just to make it easier for me. I will always be grateful to them for that.
I hope this book will help all the people who suffer this illness around the world, to help them to enjoy again with all the hopes they had before, and they possible lost by now.
My parents have decided to explain all this in a book in order to help out, and to make sure nobody has to suffer as much as I have, and also to show everybody, including doctors, that there is a solution to fibromyalgia. I hope all of them who suffer now will soon get better.
I also believe that talking about it helps to improve, I have experienced this myself. Once, at school, we had to do an oral presentation in front of the class, we had to talk during four minutes about a theme of our own choice.
After consulting with my mother, I decided that fibromyalgia was a theme I knew something about. I practiced at home about what I was going to say about it, and it seemed like I had everything under control, but nobody was to know what was just about to happen.
It was my turn, and I went out to the blackboard, in front of all my classmates. Everything seemed to go just fine, until just a moment after explaining what fibromyalgia was, about all the people affected by it around the world, and the symptoms caused by this illness, the moment arrived when I had to confess in front of everybody that two years sooner, I was the one diagnosticated with fibromyalgia. Just then, I started to notice that words couldn´t come out from my mouth, and I felt like I run out of air, suddenly I started to cry, and I wasn´t able to stop. All my classmates looked at me, feeling helpless, not knowing what to do, and I heard my teacher telling me to breath and calm down.
It was then when I really realized how much I had suffered, and how ill I had gotten to be. I also thought about my parents, and how much they had suffered because of me. It was like, all of a sudden, something came out, something that had been deeply hidden inside of me. The truth is that I was surprised, I felt relaxed and it made me feel great. With my friends help, I could continue and finish my story, a story I had never had the courage to share with anyone before.
My parents have worked really hard to make sure other people who suffer fibromyalgia listen to them and follow their advise. I thank them for their constant fight. And, to all the people who suffer it, I wish to tell them that with perseverance, patience, and willpower, they can overcome it, just the way I did.
Kisses

Ten years have gone by, and Marta has finished her University studies, and she is working as a social worker.
Fibromyalgia is simply an intoxication of the body.
When we achieve the clean up of our bowel, liver and kidneys through good nutrition habits, little by little our own body will help the disease symptoms disappear.
Only you have the power of decission and the strength to really change your life.
