I Have Fibromyalgia , So Having Pains Is Nothing Unusual.

Posted on Tue, 22 Nov 2022

Question: I have Fibromyalgia, so having pains is nothing unusual, however, lately, I'm wondering if lower abdominal pain and lower back pain (more so on the back right side) is part of it. I've also been getting a bit nauseous. I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome so not having a lot of energy is also not unusual.
I have Candida. Many times when I have that lower abdominal pain, I use a vaginal cream, i.e Monistat, and I get relief. My body has always been quite infectious so I assume it's yeast in my system.
