Jacob Teitelbaum, MD Has Come 'From Fatigued to Fantastic'
"Feed me now or I'll kill you!" got a round of laughter from the crowd listening to Jacob Teitelbaum, MD, or 'Dr. T'. It certainly hit home for me. He broke things down in a very entertaining way, to the "SHINE Protocol" -- sleep, hormones, infections, nutrition, exercise. read more »

You and Me -- Our Part of Health Care Reform
I was so very pleased to be asked to present at the Chronic Pain Documentary Series Conference in Berkeley this past weekend (see yesterday's blog). I was asked by the filmmaker doing the series based on my commitment to the concept demonstrated on Lumigrate's home page and my history of having been both a patient/consumer with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue over the past 20 years and a provider. The seminar I presented is titled 'Proactivity vs. read more »

Conference on Chronic Pain and Fatigue, Fibromyalgia - Communicative Convergence of Doctors, Therapists, and Patients
Anyone interested in the subject of chronic pain should be interested in what we were part of this weekend in Berkeley, CA. A group of professionals and people with chronic pain or family/friends with it, came together in the most inviting, open room of an art studio and shared our experiences and knowledge for 9 hours. Two things were most striking for me: that people with chronic pain conditions would attend in such substantial numbers and be able to stay for such an event and that many of the presenters and crew had a history of chronic pain and are sincerely passi read more »

For the Price of a Movie!... Circling the Wagons!
It's been really interesting to see what all has come our way recently. Lumigrate has reached out and made hundreds of new friends (and we're looking forward to that continuing!), some of which are really leaders in the health care community. The website is being recognized as valuable for progressive health seekers. We appreciate the people who stopped by and looked around, downloaded or ordered DVDs or took the time to write in the forum areas. We also are looking forward to continuing to foster collaborative relationships with top quality provider read more »

Fibromyalgia Awareness Day (May 12, 2009) at Lumigrate
We really hussled at Lumigrate to do our part with Fibromyalgia Awareness Days on Facebook today. We've made a lot of new friends ('Lumigrate Webucation' is our business page and 'Lumigrate.com' is our group on facebook) and were pleased to see them liking the 'Clip or Tip o' the Day' enough to 'Share' it so their friends could presumably be enlightened and entertained! read more »

I've not only wanted to talk with the people who have these conditions, but the therapists and medical providers who work with them. AND ..... read more »

Free Downloads versus Snippets
It's been a fast month for us at Lumigrate since the website went live! We appreciate everyone who has gone in and looked at our website, and we've gotten good feedback which allows us to know what we can do better.
Mostly, there has been some confusion about the 'free downloads' (of which there are three -- "Chronic Illness: Full Barrel Syndrome", for instance) versus the snippets we provide of ALL the videos. We've provided entire videos to download for free so people can get an idea of what our video seminars are like -- Full Barrel Syndrome allows anyone to explore the process of downloading a shorter seminar and the documentation for NO COST. It is a shorter seminar than any that are on Lumigrate for a charge -- generally the seminars are 45 minutes to an hour (some are longer and we split into two parts, such as 'Supplements and Disease Prevention)." We've provided free snippets of every video so people can get a better sense about what the video/presenter is about. read more »
