We have suspected an abnormality in excretion of phosphates as the cause of the ATP problem. In turn, calcium would follow phosphates into the cell, and when this sits free in the intra cellular fluid, forces the cell into either action, or blocks its function. Since nothing other than calcium free in the muscular fluid can sustain muscular contraction, it follows that the spastic muscle parts we find in the so-called tender points are sustained by excess calcium in the wrong place. Guaifenesin seems more powerful than our previous medications. It is capable of reversing the entire process of fibromyalgia in a cyclic progressive fashion.
Treatment unfortunately reverses all disease symptoms in more intense cycling.
This is due to a rapid attack on multiple areas simultaneously. This occurs faster for a lucky 25-30 percent of individuals. There are many brands of guaifenesin available in 600 mg. tablets. After two weeks patient relate what they have noted and the examiner determines if the map has shown changes. If the results are unsatisfactory, the dosage is changed to 600 mg. twice daily.
