Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome & Thyroid Disorders Conquering Fatigue, Weight Gain, Chronic Pain & Brain Fog

By Dr. Greg Fors, DC, Board-certified Neurologist Do you ache all over at times? Does fatigue haunt you? Are you noticing other health issues: digestive problems, mood swings and brain fog? Are you wondering if you have fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, a thyroid problem or possibly all three? Tired of taking drugs for your Fibro with all their side effects? Confused because you have been told your thyroid is fine but all your symptoms point to hypothyroidism? Are you on thyroid medication but still feeling hypothyroid? If you answered yes to any of these questions it is vital that you read further and attend one of my up coming seminars. However you label it, Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (FMS/CFS) is caused by the loss of cellular energy. This loss of cell vitality takes place throughout the body especially in energy demanding tissues such as muscles, the digestive tract and the brain. This loss of cell vitality leads to pain and disability, plus research now shows rates of earlier death from preventable chronic diseases. The wide variety of symptoms with FMS/CFS gives witness to the fact that throughout the body and brain there is not enough energy to properly run and keep these tissues in good repair. This ‘gumming-up’ of your energy production (e.g. muscle, nerve, skin) primarily involves systemic inflammation and oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is when free radicals’ from poor diet and chemical exposure buildup in tissues and cause damage to cells, turning on inflammation. In virtually every patient I treat with chronic pain and fatigue, I find the indicators of oxidative stress and chronic inflammation elevated. Drugs prescribed for fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome such as Lyrica and Cymbalta cover up the symptoms but do nothing to treat these underlying metabolic and nutritional problems causing the damage. There is hope, and it can be conquered. I have personally witnessed this thousands of times, even with my own daughter! With unique functional laboratory tests now available, the nutritional needs and metabolic dysfunction in individuals with FMS/CFS can be determined and treated. A doctor must be trained in utilizing and properly interpreting these biomarkers to make them useful to the patient's recovery. What about hypothyroidism? It is becoming more known and understood that when diagnosing hypothyroidism just measuring a TSH and possibly a T4 level only catches about 17% of hypothyroid patients. To properly diagnose your thyroid at least eight different thyroid tests: TSH, Total T4, free T4, Total T-3, Free T3, Reverse T-3 and Thyroid Antibodies should be tested. This will also determine if you have central hypothyroidism, peripheral hypothyroidism, under conversion hypothyroidism, and Reverse T-3 syndrome. A very common problem is the inability to convert your T4 into the active T-3. This can even happen when an abnormal T4 level is being treated with Synthroid or levothyroxine. Many individuals do not adequately convert Synthroid or levothyroxine to the active T-3, thus leaving them still feeling the hypothyroid symptoms even while on medication. Again, this can be fixed by addressing and then correcting the underlying nutritional and metabolic issues. Then there is Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, the cause of 90% of hypothyroidism. Hashimoto’s is triggered when antibodies from your immune system attack your thyroid decreasing the thyroid’s hormone output causing hypothyroid symptoms. It frequently goes undiagnosed because proper thyroid antibody tests are not run. Additionally, even when diagnosed very few doctors know how to stop the immune system from killing off your thyroid. It is important to know that antibodies in Hashimoto's are commonly activated by food allergies, toxic chemicals and metals. Chronic bacterial or virus infections can also trigger the autoimmune response. To properly treat Hashimoto's disease these autoimmune triggers must be identified and removed by a doctor knowledgeable in functional medicine. If you are suffering with chronic pain and fatigue it is vital to get information that can help you really heal. I present this essential information in my best-selling book “Why We Hurt” and at my FREE seminars. Join me, Dr. Greg Fors, at one of these FREE workshops. 7PM Wednesday November 13th or Monday November 18th at the Pain and Brain Healing Center. Aslo 6:30 PM Monday November 25th at the Northtown library in Blaine. I will discuss how you can reinvent your life, naturally.

www.ParkAndSellAutoMart.com THE MOON (continued) • The average speed at which the moon orbits the Earth is 2,287 mph (3,680 km/hr.) • We only see about 59% of the moon’s surface from Earth. The pattern of the moon’s rotation causes the same side to face Earth at all times. What we frequently call the “dark sideâ€? of the moon (that part we can’t see) should really be referred to as the “far side.â€? It has only been photographed from spacecraft. The surface is covered by a mantle made up of an 825mile-thick (1,330 km) layer of iron and magnesium-rich rock known as regolith. It’s been pounded by meteors, asteroids, and comets, which have created countless craters across its expanse. The widest craters are 140 miles (225 km) in diameter and are as deep as 15,000 ft. (4,500 m). There are mountains standing as high as 16,000 ft. (5,000 m). It’s estimated that the moon weighs about 81 quintillion tons (74 sextillion kg). • Although the moon looks round to us, it’s really egg-shaped. As we look at it, the smaller end of the egg is pointed toward us. It appears to be about the same size as the sun, but it’s actually 400 times smaller. Because the moon is 400 times closer to Earth than the sun is, the two appear about the same size. The moon is actually moving away from Earth about 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) a year. • Gravity on the moon is just 1/6 that of Earth. This means if you weigh 120 lbs. (54.4 kg) on Earth, you weigh only 20 lbs. (9.1 kg) on the moon. And if you don’t feel like dieting, remember that because of gravitational effects, you weigh just a bit less when the moon is directly overhead. • The world first saw close-up TV pictures of the moon’s surface in 1964 when images were sent back by Ranger 7, the first U.S. space probe. • In May, 1961, President John F. Kennedy stated his goal in an address to Congress of “landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the Earthâ€? by the end of the 1960s. The first manned spacecraft to the moon was Apollo 8 in 1968, when Frank Borman, James Lovell, and William Anders circled the moon 10 times before heading back to Earth. • The Apollo 11 crew made history in July, 1969 when they made the first landing. On July 20, Neil Armstrong became the first human to set foot on the moon. There are very few Americans unfamiliar with his famous words, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.â€? Armstrong later reported that what he actually said was, “that’s one small step for a man‌â€? The crew spent 21 hours and 36 minutes on

the surface, with 2 hours and 36 minutes outside the craft, walking on the surface. The footprints of the Apollo 11 crew astronauts will remain for thousands of years, considering there is no wind or adverse weather to disturb them. • The Apollo 11 crew collected lunar rocks weighing 842 lbs. (382 kg.). • A total of 12 men have walked on the moon. No one has done so since December, 1972 when Eugene Cernan of the final manned mission to the moon, Apollo 17, became the last man to set foot on the lunar surface. Apollo 17 was the sixth landing of humans on the moon. • Do you know the difference between waxing and waning? During the phases of the moon’s cycle, when it appears to be getting larger, it’s called waxing, while waning is when it appears to get smaller. • If we didn’t have the moon, the oceans would have no tides. Tides rise because of the pull of the moon’s gravity. This gravity is strongest on the side of Earth nearest the moon, and it pulls up the water slightly, which is high tide. On the side of Earth farthest from the moon, the gravity is at its weakest, and the water moves a little away from the moon. • What does it take the create an eclipse? These phenomena occur only when the sun, Earth, and moon are all in a straight line and one blocks the light from another. The official term for this configuration of three celestial bodies is syzygy. A solar eclipse will occur during a new moon, when the moon is between the sun and Earth and blocks the sunlight. A lunar eclipse will occur at the time of a full moon, when Earth is between the sun and the moon, and blocks the sun’s

light that would normally light up the moon. • According to folklore, if you see the slim crescent moon over your right shoulder, it’s considered good luck, while seeing it over your left shoulder is unlucky. Legend further states that if you move to a new home during a waning moon, you will never go hungry.

VIRGINIA WOODHULL

Most folks have never heard of Victoria Woodhull, but she made the pages of history books as the first woman to run for the office of the President of the United States. Let’s learn more about Victoria’s several other achievements. • Born into humble beginnings, Victoria’s parents ran a traveling medicine show, where her mother was a spiritualist and her father, the typical “snake oil salesman.” Victoria and her sister Tennie worked as clairvoyants and fortune tellers in the show. At age 14, Victoria contracted a serious illness and her parents consulted a 28-year-old doctor, Channing Woodhull, who would become Victoria’s husband just two months past her 15th birthday. • It soon became apparent that Dr. Woodhull was an alcoholic, morphine addict, and a womanizer, and Victoria went to work to keep them afloat. After two children, including one who was mentally disabled, Victoria divorced Woodhull 11 years later. • Victoria and Tennie were very successful as spiritual mediums and healers and made the move to New York City to capitalize on this success. Victoria married again, this time to James Blood, a former Union Army colonel in the Civil War, who had also been the first mayor of Lawrence, Kansas. The sisters’ most famous client was railroad millionaire Cornelius Vanderbilt. In appreciation for their services, in 1870 Vanderbilt helped them open their own stock brokerage house on Wall Street, and the sisters became the first women stockbrokers in history. The company was immediately successful, patronized by wealthy widows and other women of means.

• With the proceeds from the brokerage, the women established their own newspaper Woodhull and Claflin’s Weekly, a publication with 20,000 subscribers, which focused on women’s rights and labor reform. The paper was the first to print the English version of Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto. • In 1872, nearly 50 years before women had the right to vote, Victoria became the first female candidate for U.S. President, nominated by the Equal Rights Party. The Party chose former slave and abolitionist leader Frederick Douglass as her running mate, although he never acknowledged the nomination. Victoria’s platform included an eight-hour workday, a graduated income tax, social welfare programs, and women’s rights. As a divorced woman, she advocated new divorce laws that gave women the right to leave unbearable marriages. In her words, “I have an inalienable constitutional and natural right to love whom I may, to love as long or as short a period as I can, to change that love every day if I please!” • Just days before the Presidential election, Woodhull, her husband, and her sister were arrested on obscenity charges for running an exposé on popular Brooklyn preacher Henry Ward Beecher. Victoria spent election day in jail, and although she was acquitted of all charges, her reputation was destroyed and her businesses went bankrupt. • Woodhull divorced her second husband in 1876, and moved to England, where she married a wealthy banker, and published a magazine called The Humanitarian for nine years. She lived out the remainder of her days in England, dying in London in 1927.

a series of bright yellow arrows straight out of a Tex Avery cartoon. By 1924, just a year after Congress funded it, the line of giant concrete markers stretched from Rock Springs, Wyoming to Cleveland, Ohio. The next summer, it reached all the way to New York , and by 1929 it spanned the continent uninterrupted, the envy of postal systems worldwide. Radio and radar are, of course, infinitely less cool than a concrete "Yellow Brick Road" from sea to shining sea, but I think we all know how this story ends. New advances in communication and navigation technology made the big arrows obsolete, and the Commerce Department decommissioned the beacons in the 1940s. The steel towers were torn down and went to the war effort. But the hundreds of arrows remain. Their yellow paint is gone, their concrete cracks a little more with every winter frost, and no one crosses their path much, except coyotes and tumbleweeds.

Giant Arrows

Every so often, usually in the vast deserts of the American Southwest, a hiker or a backpacker will run across something puzzling: a ginormous concrete arrow, as much as seventy feet in length, just sitting in the middle of scrub-covered nowhere. What are these giant arrows? Some kind of surveying mark? Landing beacons for flying saucers? Earth’s turn signals? No, it's…The Transcontinental Air Mail Route A re-creation of a 1920s map showing the route of airmail planes; the dots are intermediate stops along the course. On August 20, 1920, the United States opened its first coast-to-coast airmail delivery route, just 60 years after the Pony Express closed up shop. There were no good aviation charts in those days, so pilots had to eyeball their way across the country using landmarks. This meant that flying in bad weather was difficult, and night flying was just about impossible. The Postal Service solved the problem with the world’s first ground-based civilian navigation system: a series of lit beacons that would extend from New York to San Francisco. Every ten miles, pilots would pass a bright yellow concrete arrow. Each arrow would be surmounted by a 51-foot steel tower and lit by a million-candlepower rotating beacon. (A generator shed at the tail of each arrow powered the beacon). Now mail could get from the Atlantic to the Pacific not in a matter of weeks, but in just 30 hours or so. Even the dumbest of air mail pilots, it seems, could follow

William Shakespeare

contributed more phrases and sayings to the English language than any other individual, and most of them are still in daily use. Here's a collection of well-known quotations that are associated with Shakespeare. Most of these were the Bard's own work, but he wasn't adverse to stealing a good line occassionally and a few of these were 'popularised by' rather than 'coined by' Shakespeare.

BEFORE IT STARTS...

CARD FACTS ♠

On a deck of cards, the king of spades represents David, King of Israel; Clubs represents Alexander the Great, King of Macedonia; Hearts is Charlemagne, King of France; and Diamonds is Caesar Augustus, Emperor of Rome. ♣ The symbols on a deck of cards were invented to represent the four classes of men: hearts represented the clergy; spades for warriors; clubs were originally leaves andd represented the peasants; and merchants were represented by diamonds. This design was invented around 1392. ♥ The word spades comes from the Spanish word for sword, "espada." ♦ Clover er comes from the Anglo-Saxon word "cloefer" meaning club. Hercules had a club which had three heads, H and the clover plant has bracts of three leaves. The club on pl decks of cards come from the clover plant. ♠ In card games, sometimes a marker or buck is placed in front of the person who is to deal the next game. Every time the deal passes, players also "pass the buck."

of Him

and Her

A man and his wife, now in their 60's, were celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary. On their special day, a good fairy came to them and said that because they had been so good that each one of them could have one wish. The wife wished for a trip around the world with her husband. Whoosh! Immediately she had airline/ cruise tickets in her hands. The man wished for a female companion 30 years younger... Whoosh...immediately he turned ninety!!! Gotta love that fairy!

Ted was going bald there was no two ways about it. Trying to cheer him up, his wife, Barbara, bought him a toupee. Barbara was very excited to show off her “new husband”, so she was thrilled when one of their friends invited them to a party at their house. It was later that night after the party that Barbara found Ted lounging around on the couch looking depressed. “What’s wrong Honey?” said Barbara sitting down on the couch next to him. “I didn’t enjoy the party at all,” complained Ted “I was so self conscious I felt like everyone was able to tell I was wearing a toupee. “Oh Sweetie” said Barbara patting Ted’s knee, “I’m sure nobody was able to tell! In fact, all of the people at the party that I told, were all surprised!”

Thought for the Day: “Half of the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don’t mean to do harm, but the harm does not interest them.� -- T.S. Eliot

*****************

� You might think that once gloves were introduced to the sport of boxing, it became safer to be a boxer. You’d be wrong. After the introduction of boxing gloves, death rates actually went up. It seems that when bare-knuckle boxing, hardly anybody would get hit in the face -- the one who threw the punch was too likely to end up with a broken hand.

� There are more public libraries in the United States than there are McDonald’s restaurants. For the moment, at any rate.

â—? Those who study such things say that by the year 2020, more data will be created in a single hour than had been created in the entire world over the 30,000 years leading up to the 21st century.

â—? If you find brushing your teeth to be tedious, you might want to check out the Blizzident. The makers of this new product use a 3D scan of your teeth to create a custom toothbrush that looks like a mouthpiece lined with bristles. Supposedly, all you have to do is insert the Blizzident in your mouth, bite down and release 10 times, and -- voila! -- clean teeth in 6 seconds. Be prepared to pay for the convenience, though; a Blizzident of your very own will set you back $299. The toothbrush will last for a year, though, and replacement bristles are $89.

� It was much-loved Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw who made the following sage observation: “It is dangerous to be sincere unless you are also stupid.�

� You may have heard that painting your kitchen red or yellow can help stimulate your appetite, while painting it blue can help suppress it. The kitchen isn’t the only living area in which color research has been done, though; those who study such things say that those who sleep in yellow bedrooms get an average of 7.7 hours of sleep per night, while those in purple bedrooms sleep only 5.9 hours per night on average.

â—? You might be surprised to learn that eggplants have fairly high levels of nicotine.

� If you’re planning a trip to Hollywood next summer, you might want to make a stop at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery. Not only can you visit the graves of such stars as Rudolph Valentino, Jayne Mansfield and Douglas Fairbanks (both Sr. and Jr.), but in the summer you also can picnic there while watching classic movies.

We’ve all seen it nearly every day of our lives. This week, Tidbits is full of “bet you didn’t know thatâ€? facts about the moon. • The moon is 225,745 miles (363,301 km) from Earth. If you were able to plan a trip there, it would be about a two-day trip on a rocket or a 625-hour ride on a 747 jet flying at 400 mph (644 km/hr). If you could drive your car there, it would take 135 days traveling at 70 mph (112 km/hr). • Driving around the circumference of the moon, 6,790 miles (10,864 km), is about equal to a trip from New York to London and back. The moon is about 27% the size of Earth, with an area of 14,658,000 square miles (37,932,000 sq. km). That’s about 9.4 billion acres. • Temperatures on the moon vary from 273 degrees F (134 C) at the hottest time of the day to -244 degrees F (-153C) at night. A day on the moon from sunrise to sunrise is about 708 hours. It rotates on its axis at a speed of about 10 mph (16 km/hr). Compare this with Earth, which rotates at about 1,000 mph (1,609 km/hr). Yet both the moon and Earth complete their orbit in about the same amount of time.
