Thought this interesting although vita D seems like alternative it fits in with meds as low levels of the hormone Vita D leads to fibromyalgia and chronic pain. Establishing normal levels of D reduces the need for pain meds. Phillipa

Really interesting.

Yes. So many people have a shortage of vitamin D because we are now a society of "sunblock".
The light boxes are for people with SAD. They don't give off vitamin D (well, of course you know that).
