Fibro fog: What causes memory problems in fibromyalgia?

doctorstevesbanjo.com — “Inflammatory cytokines impair memory and learning: Fibro fog. Cytokines are inter-cellular chemical messengers produced mostly by white blood cells.

How ‘sickness syndrome’ might explain the fatigue and depression of fibromyalgia

doctorstevesbanjo.com — “The term 'sickness syndrome' refers to a constellation of non-specific symptoms that develop in connection with many ailments, especially infections. Simply stated, when you get an infection you feel lethargic, fatigued, sleepy, and somewhat depressed. You feel sick. Fibromyalgia results in those same symptoms, not (of course) because it's caused by a 'bug', but fibromyalgia might trick your brain into thinking you've got one doozy of an infection - an infection that never seems to go away.

How your immune system talks to your brain and messes with your sleep

doctorstevesbanjo.com — “Basically, the immune system becomes activated during times of stress. 'Stress' can be an infection, an injury, or emotional/psychological stress. The activated immune system releases cytokines (pro-inflammatory cytokines) that communicate with your brain by stimulating nerves. Then your brain also begins releasing cytokines, with a resulting effect on sleep, mood and certain behaviors. That makes sense, because if you have an injury, an infection, or you're under a great deal of psychological sView full resource at doctorstevesbanjo.com

Rhubarb extract reduces gingival inflammation

doctorstevesbanjo.com — “Inflammation was reduced, as was the concentration of IL-8 and metalloproteinase. Well, if you have fibromyalgia, and if it's because you have an excess of IL-8, it might be quite significant. Also, you're less likely to end up with inflamed gums if you routinely use a lozenge that has rhubarb extract as one of its ingredients. At least that's how it appears from the study (very) briefly summarized below.View full resource at doctorstevesbanjo.com

Rhubarb extract decreases concentration of pro-inflammatory cytokines in monocytes

doctorstevesbanjo.com — “According to the theory of fibromyalgia advanced on this site, fibromyalgia (or its major symptoms) may result from excessive production of IL-8, leading to NF-kappaB activation with subsequent additional production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (including IL-6 and TNF.) If correct, and in light of the observed inhibitory effect of rhubarb extract, then administration of rhubarb extract could offer substantial benefit to those with fibromyalgia.View full resource at doctorstevesbanjo.com
