Julia shares her Multiple Chemical Sensitivities Recovery story (MCS recovery story) in this wonderful interview. In part 1 here, we explore how her illness came on in childhood and how she struggled with doctors and the label of having a psychosomatic illness.
Then, her MCS suddenly went into remission following a change in environment (makes sense given that MCS is often referred to as environmental illness) But 10 years later she was back in the throes of chronic illness and her multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) had flared worse than ever.
We explore what may have led to all these issues, the impact on her emotional state and mental health and the shocking adversity she faced during her journey with multiple chemical sensitivities (MCS) and the story of how she found a turning point for her Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) recovery.

It's easy to get overwhelmed with Fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, POTS, MCS, and similar invisible illnesses.

People feel overwhelmed trying to do new diets, lifestyle changes, medical treatments, brain training, and just about any other helpful strategy to recover from Fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, POTS, or MCS.

Understanding how this affects your recovery and how to change your approach may be the biggest breakthrough in your recovery.

Rachel tells her story of Fibromyalgia Remission - it's interesting to hear her say that despite being healthy again and symptom free, she still says "I have fibromyalgia".

We discuss how she became ill and how she went into fibromyalgia remission and the differences between recovery, cure and fibromyalgia remission.

Fibromyalgia sleep and ME/CFS sleep are full of problems.  Getting to sleep, staying asleep, and experiencing refreshing sleep all elude patients.
  
Dr Jacob Teitelbaum is one of the world's leading Fibromyalgia, ME/CFS and POTS physicians and shares his experience and insights on sleep restoration in this episode of the Wisdom from the Other Side Podcast.

Dan Neuffer & Dr Teitelbaum discuss normal sleep vs sleep in fibromyalgia/ME/CFS/POTS and how to normalise fibromyalgia sleep disturbance to accelerate recovery progress.

We peel back the layers of strategies for sleep normalisation, including neural retraining and also the psychological components of sleep disturbance.

It's so easy into thinking that we have 'tried it all' in terms of fibromyalgia sleep remedies or ME/CFS sleep treatments, but what is needed is a structured building of strategies to improve sleep.

We discuss fibromyalgia sleep problems like sleep apnea, fibromyalgia sleep medication (CFS sleep medication) and Upper Airways Resistance Syndrome in Fibromyalgia, ME/CFS and POTS.
