There are many ways to go about working on this. You can listen to tapes like paraliminals, go through home study courses, use NLP, hypnosis, or the Silva Method on yourself, or find a good hypnotist or NLP practitioner. Kevin Hogan is in Eagan, MN, and has a good reputaion in dealing with chronic illness. I don't know how far that is from you.

Howver, before any of that, I HIGHLY recommend that you see a medical doctor to at least rule out any physical problems. It would probably be best to find one that believe that things Fibromyalgia/CFS really exists and that also would recommend supplements and complementary medicine, not that I'm saying that is what I think you have, but that a doctor like that would be more open-minded and probably pay more attention to your symptoms, whatever they are. Like another poster said, food allergies also cause lots of problems and not many doctors test for allergies that cause chronic problems.

Ruling out a physical cause is very important before doing any complementary therapy. Even if there is a physical cause hypnosis and similar therapies can greatly enhance healing when working with conventional medical practitioners.

Here is an example from my own experience, at least I was partially involved in this case. I was working on a case (in my medical office job, not as a hypnotist) a few years ago of a man who had severe back pain for 8 years or so IIRC and regularly saw a chiropractor but not a doctor. He was rushed to the emergency room one day and it was found that the pain was due to metastatic bone cancer. There was really nothing that could be done at that point. Had he gone to a doctor and been tested maybe it could have been stopped in time. Maybe not. For him it was too late to find out.

I'm not against complementary therapy. If I was I wouldn't have become a hypnotist. What I am saying is that we have the most advanced medical technology available anywhere at any time up until now and we also have a vast array of complementary therapies avialable. It only makes sense to use any advantage you can.
