Hi Earth Mother, I too have fibromyalgia, although I'm honestly beginning to suspect that it's chronic myofascial pain, which is similar and sometimes it's both happening. I've found that types that are high in DHM tend to actually increase my pain, although DHM is responsible for muscle relaxation. It's pretty weird. I know I always feel fine up until about an hour, which is when DHM and, I believe, DHK kick in. Also strains that are known to be high DHM make it worse, which led to conclude that DHM is the cause. I've ordered four strains which are supposed to be very low DHM and should start getting them tomorrow probably, so I'll give an update on the results. So basically, be very careful with high DHM strains. I'd go for headier kava strains, such as BKH's Melo Melo and Waka (Fiji Waka is generally high DHM because of the lateral root content [which is higher in DHM], but I've heard from numerous people that BKH's seems to be pretty low) or Kava by Rex's Tongan Pride. Also, someone recommended a Hawaiian strain from a company called Kavaboy. Anyways, Hawaiian and Tongan seem to be the ones to go for. It also sounds like Borogu, from Bula Kava House, might be Okay too. It's really a trial and error thing. K@ also helps, and I'm conflicted on whether to recommend this or not, because you can only take it occasionally. NO MORE than every other day AT MOST. Also, I may just have some sort of bad response/allergy to DHM, who knows...everyone is different. I'd be interested to hear about your results though! P.S., if it's Fijian then it should be a "noble kava". At least to my understanding it should be. Judging by other peoples (Kavagurl) results though, I either have chronic myofascial pain that doesn't respond too well to DHM, an allergy, or something's up with me...
