FMa blood test and treatment

Bay of Plenty

Eighteen months ago I became very ill. At that time I was in extreme pain and after several trips to A & E, numerous trips to the doctors they did not know what was causing so much pain. I became exhausted due to lack of sleep because 24/7 pain level 10/10. I could not cope with the pain any more and attempted to kill myself. After receiving CPR by a St John medic I was in Intensive care and remained in Tauranga Hospital for days. I was sent home with 16 drugs to take per day. Over the 18 months to now I have to take 32 drugs a day to survive. Even after taking all these drugs I am in pain 8/10 24/7. I received a diagnoses of fibromyalgia after the doctors tested for everything. Every part of my body, muscles, joints, bones and organs are painful. I was told I will have to learn to live with this pain as there was no cure. There was no blood test for this life long disease. Recently a medical lab called EpicGenetics have a blood test and has FDA approval and they have a cure using a vaccine for T.B called BCG Tokyo strain. This vaccine regulates the Immune system as this decease is caused by immune deficency. I have contacted the lab about having the test and treatment.

Thank you for your application regarding the FM/a® test.

Please be aware that people in Australia and New Zealand can arrange for the FM/a® test and many already have had it. Because your blood specimen is analyzed at our Los Angeles, California laboratory, the cost is not covered by your NHS. You need to pay out of pocket. The cost is $936(US) plus the cost to ship the specimen kit to you and to then have your blood specimens returned overnight via FedEx to our Los Angeles laboratory. You would receive your test results 7-10 business days later. Please note that New Zealand cannot send the test due to the 24 hour turn around. However, if you travel Sydney, we can send you the test and you can take it to Sydney.

You will have to travel to Boston for the treatment. After your first initial injection, we will have to then test you again in 90 days, which we can send the test to you again. After the first year of the shot, most likely you will need one more a year from the original date of injection. There is no cost for the treatment, but you would have to pay for your own travel arrangements.The FM/a® test was developed at the University of Illinois College of Medicine at Chicago. It currently is the only objective, peer-reviewed, highly accurate/sensitive FDA-compliant (FDA CFR Part 866.5700) blood test available for diagnosing fibromyalgia. The development and discovery of the FM/a® test has for the first time legitimized and proven the existence of fibromyalgia as being an actual medical disease. Fibromyalgia has now been documented to stem from immune system dysfunctioning. Specifically, peripheral blood mononuclear cells within the body’s immune system lack the ability to produce critical chemokine and cytokine proteins.

As part of your application for the FM/a® fibromyalgia blood test, you will be asked to provide the names of all of the medications and supplements you are taking. Some of these can interfere with the body’s immune system and therefore, they would need to be temporarily discontinued. If these are prescription drugs, such as those that contain corticosteroids, anti-cancer and/or biologic medications for immune system disorders, they will need to be temporarily discontinued for up to 60 days with your doctor’s approval. Some supplements may also interfere with immune system processes and therefore, they may interfere with the FM/a® blood test. These include vitamins that contain Biotin, cough/ cold preparations that contain Guaifenesin and anything that relates to marijuana or its byproducts, such as CBD. Therefore, we will screen your list of drugs and supplements and inform you whether or not any need to be temporarily discontinued. Additionally, because vaccinations can impact immune system effects, there is a waiting period of 90 days following any recent vaccinations before having your blood drawn for the FM/a® test.

The value of undergoing the FM/a® test is not only the opportunity to learn with objectivity and accuracy whether you have fibromyalgia. We have devoted over $80,000.00 per patient for those volunteers who enter the clinical treatment trial. We, via that clinical treatment trial, are working to reverse the biology of fibromyalgia. Unlike drug companies which offer medications that can only and sometimes address fibromyalgia-related symptoms, we are anticipating actually and directly treating and reversing fibromyalgia. Therefore, we trust you can appreciate the opportunities and numerous benefits associated with undergoing the FM/a® fibromyalgia blood test.
