Dopamine Affects Nerves, Movement and Energy Levels

For instance, dopamine also plays a part in your nerve functions. It is responsible for transmitting signals throughout your body and telling your body to move. Hence, dopamine helps to control your movement and energy levels too. Some doctors believe that conditions such as Parkinson’s disease are due to a low level of dopamine in the brain. Interestingly, several studies show that those who have fibromyalgia also have low levels of dopamine.

    There’s. no way around Fibromyalgia, I’m always in pain , everyday, every minute, I’ve tried some pretty stupid cures most of supplements known to mankind. I suffer in silence pain pills don’t work a lot of the times. I read everything on my disease. This is the point of self-destruction but I’m better than this crude

    Mary… you described it best. Astonishing the amount of pain we are in and relief cant be found. I thought i was an oddball bc everyone i know with fibro, besides myself, has relief from therapy or pain pills or lyrica, cymbalta, etc… have you tried Kratom by chance?

    I’ve started using CBD oils, CBD gummies, and going to the chiropractor. My body is feeling so much better, and now a flare up only last a day or two tops! I’ve gone off Lyrica, Topimax for migraines.
