What to do when debilitating physical symptoms are dismissed as psychosomatic?
I've lost hope of ever getting better from chronic pain and fatigue
If the above statement rings true for you, we would like you to know that there is hope of regaining your health and get back to feeling strong, happy and vibrant again. Far too many people experience that their chronic pain and fatigue is eventually dismissed as being psychosomatic, all in their heads, after numerous and exhaustive laboratory tests and physical exams come back normal or inconclusive.
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS/ME) and Fibromyalgia
The group of symptoms leading to a diagnosis of CFS/ME or fibromyalgia are commonly seen in both diagnosis.
- Extreme physical fatigue (not relieved by sleeping and made worse by physical activity)
- Mental fatigue and brainfog (difficult concentrating, thinking, remembering)
- Muscle and joint pain
- Difficulty sleeping
- Flu like symptoms
- Sore throat and glands
- Headaches
- Dizzyness
- Heart palpitations (racing heart) also seen in PoTS (postural tachycardia syndrome)
What is often lacking when receiving a diagnosis of CFS/ME or fibromyalgia by conventional medicine, is an ability to establish a cause and a subsequent plan of treating the presenting symptoms, restoring the person back to health (hence the tendency to label a group of unexplained symptoms as psychosomatic). Many patients who have some, or all of the symptoms listed above, have experienced being met with skepticism by their conventional healthcare provider, or dismissed by being told that their complaints are psychosomatic, all in their heads, and advised to see a psychologist.
It is true that conventional medicine have very little to offer in terms of effective and restorative treatment to this large and ever increasing group of patients. When you find yourself in a situation of chronic pain and fatigue, rejected, and loosing hope of ever recovering, the despair can often lead to anxiety and depression. You may already be taking one or several over the counter or prescription medications for your physical symptoms, and ending up adding anti-anxiety or antidepressants for your depressed and anxious mood. This leads us to the issue of toxic overload, which may be the root cause of your group of symptoms in the first place.
Root cause, toxic overload and individualized treatment
Homeopathy stands apart from the conventional medical approach when it comes to treating dis-ease. Homeopathy does not depend on a diagnosis to be able to help you back to health. A diagnosis is really just a name, a label, for the group of symptoms the person is having. Our job as homeopaths is to treat the person with the symptoms and not the disease 'label'. Our job is also to determine what may have caused or triggered your symptoms, when they started (gradually or sudden), and what might have been going on in your life at the time (viral or bacterial illness, emotional upset or trauma, vaccinations, medications, or other physical or emotional toxic exposure).
We never take a generic approach to healing. Homeopathy is individualized and natural medicine, tailored to fit the uniqueness in each person we see. One persons pain is not like another persons pain. Your fatigue is not exactly like the next persons fatigue, same goes for all symptoms you are having, whether physical or emotional.
Our body's immune system is constantly working to maintain it's self-healing mechanism and ensure that the detoxifying pathways are operating well to maintain balance and health. The amount of toxic exposures our body's are subject to in today's world can easily overwhelm it's capacity to eliminate effectively and remain dis-ease free, leading to toxic overload. This toxic overload can result in a myriad of physical and emotional symptoms, classified into disease labels (diagnosis).
If you suffer from unexplained fatigue and pain, homeopathy can help you recover safely, effectively and gently, without the additional toxic onslaught to an already compromised and struggling immune system. Our goal is to support, rebuild and balance your immune system while helping the body rid itself of the toxins that are causing your ill health.
We create a customized roadmap to regain balance, using homeopathy and homeopathic detox therapy to support and strengthen your immune system, eliminate toxins, and support your organs optimal functioning during this process.
We understand that your chronic pain and fatigue is not psychosomatic and can offer you real and lasting help through individualized care.
Our homeopaths will always greet you with compassion, respect and warmth, and help you on your way back to a healthy, active and fulfilling life.
