Facts about Fibromyalgia
Research has shown that the symptoms of fibromyalgia are due to something inflaming the central nervous system. When the central nervous system is inflamed, the signal around pain sensing can be altered.
Fibromyalgia is reversible when we properly identify the reason and the root causes of the fibro, which can be done by advanced lab tests.
For those with fibromyalgia, the body begins to interpret smaller amounts of sensation as pain than in a healthy body. Other symptoms that often occur with fibromyalgia such as fatigue, mood changes, insomnia, headaches and swelling can give us insights and clues to the underlying reasons for fibromyalgia.

“I was in decent health before I started seeing Drs. Miles & Diane. I had a few minor complaints (mild constipation, peeling skin on my fingers, a chronic cracking left nostril, to name a few) that were seemingly unrelated to one another. Through personalized supplementation, ALL of them virtually disappeared. We also discovered and staved off things that had been building toward something more serious in my system (pre-diabetes, pre-hypothyroidism, pre-kidney dysfunction). I am a true believer of Functional Medicine and would highly recommend the intelligence and heart-centered guidance of Drs. Miles & Diane.”

“Dr. Diane was the first person in my life to suspect and test for a condition that is fatal if not treated! I have immense gratitude to her and respect for her abilities. As it turns out the treatment is easy and, in Denver at least, no cost! And I feel great now, better than in decades. And the rest of my family is getting tested for this hereditary common condition, that for some reason, no other doctor ever even thought to look for in twenty years. Dr Diane had opened my eyes to a whole new life of physical health!”

“When I First began my journey with Medicine With Heart, I was feeling very low energy, poor focus/brain fog/cognition, terrible sleep, and a bit of a low mood. I was barely getting through my day’s, energy wise, and would generally put my regular exercise regimens on hold, in trade of a nap. I had some previous mold exposure, that I never really felt that I had bounced back from, and some potential tick born illness at play that were still in question. In the past, I had sought out more traditional allopathic Dr.’s, that would take my health insurance. They would do the standard allopathic testing…and my results would always come out “normal” and I was never offered a solution to why I felt like I was run over by a truck. So no progress was ever made with that approach.The functional medicine and testing methodologies at Medicine With Hearth, finally showed me some root causes of why I was feeling awful and I was able to get practical solutions to these root causes. Dr. Miles and staff helped to design a treatment plan, and within a few months, I was feeling very noticeable improvements. I was back to feeling like I could get through my work days with more energy, clarity, my sleep improved, and I was back to regularly exercising as well!This is an investment in your health, and from my experiences, a worthy investment. Without our health, what do we have?Besides the Dr.’s, the staff is super!! Michelle, the health coach/main contact in between Dr.’s session, is SUPER knowledgeable, helpful, and kind and the ladies in the office are always so helpful, prompt with matters at hand, and very nice. Highly recommended!!”

“I found Medicine with Heart when I was searching for a practice that would be able to help me heal from the unfortunate health effects of years of toxic mold exposure. Few doctors are knowledgeable about mold illness, so I was happy to find practitioners that had experience dealing with this very specific issue. But in addition to having expertise with various mold detoxing protocols, Dr. Miles uncovered health problems that I didn’t know I had (an issue with how my body processes iron, for example, as well as imbalances in my gut microbiome). Within a few months, I went from barely being able to function (because of such extreme fatigue) to feeling energized enough to hike several challenging trails per week. I also really appreciated the online patient portal they utilize, which really streamlines communications, appointment notes, supplements, billing, etc. From day one, Andrea at the front desk was so friendly, helpful and impeccably detail oriented and every visit was always a pleasant experience. Also, since I am a bit of a know-it-all who has been fairly obsessed with health, diet and general wellness most of my life, I really wasn’t sure whether the health coach, Michelle would have that much to offer me, but I was immediately proven wrong about that in our first session. She is extremely knowledgable about mold, general immunity, diet, fitness, supplements and pretty much all things health related. In this day and age it is hard to find a quality practice that tackles the root causes of health problems instead of just chasing symptoms. Highly recommend.”

“Dr. Miles and Dr. Diane found a gut issue that I’d never been tested for, even after I had been told I had “IBS” since I was 13 years old, and nothing was helping. They helped me change my diet and put me on supplements that have made a WORLD of difference. I now can move forward while: Knowing what is going to trigger my gut problems, not having to know where the nearest bathroom is at all time, not being constantly bloated and uncomfortable. I’m so happy to have found doctors that actually care about my progress and how I’m feeling/what is working and what’s not.”

Dr. Diane and Dr. Miles are two very compassionate, experienced professionals! I love Medicine With Heart, everyone cares and are very helpful. I haven’t trusted many health professionals in many years, but that changed when I met these docs and their staff recently.

“I can’t say enough positive comments about Dr. Diane. She is a wonderful and thorough practitioner! She has helped many of my friends and myself uncover hidden illnesses and provided treatment that is far more safe and efficient than some traditional methods. I am constantly trying to get my friends and family to see her. It saddens me how so few people are willing to invest in their health. If you are a person who values your health, you must see Dr. Diane ASAP! You won’t be disappointed!”

“I’ve seen many alternative practitioners over the years and haven’t found many people who have helped me, so I’ve become cautious when seeking someone new to work with. I’m very happy with my progress at the Medicine with Heart clinic. Dr. Diane and Dr. Miles are very thorough, and knowledgeable. They practice different modalities, one of which is functional medicine, which I feel is so important to getting to the root of one’s issues. They have a relationship with my doctor/nurse practitioner and have consulted with them regarding my issues. I really appreciate that and feel like I have a team supporting me. I will continue seeing Dr. Diane and Dr. Miles as I trust them and am confident my issues will be resolved. I would also like to say that I like them personally. They have big hearts and are a joy to work with. “

“My quality of life has improved immensely in a short period of time since I came to Medicine with Heart clinic! I used to lose up to 2 days a week to migraines and intense fatigue from chronic inflammatory response syndrome symptoms (from mold exposure) Other doctors just said it was all in my head and told me that I needed to “see an allergist and a psychiatrist…”) but Dr. Miles and Dr. Diane have absolutely changed my life by treating the ROOT of the problem and basing it on the scientific evidence from my bloodwork…I feel better than I have in years … (and the last few have been full of huge health issues including healing 100% from cancer, freedom from opiod addiction (7 years clean now) and at one point, being on 14 prescription medications ….(yes, I said 14!) I was able to get off of my very last prescription a month ago and now am on ZERO prescription medications. No more throwing drugs at the symptoms! You have to FEED the ROOTS to bear delicious FRUITS.”

(At one point, 7 years ago, I was literally on 14 prescription drugs..Eeek!!!)

“I came to MWH after decades (literally) of ailments, some of which the traditional medical community could diagnose but couldn’t treat or they couldn’t even diagnose. I’d been self-treating for years (at HUGE expenwith some success but only reduced some of the symptoms. Nothing was going away. My life was getting more and more isolated. I started work with Drs Miles and Diane about 1.5 yrs ago and feel sooooo much better. I’m able to eat more food including fruit. I’m able to exercise rigorously which allows me to consume more calories and nutrients for healing.The most impressive aspect of working with them is that their approach is MORE science-based than western medicine. Since my pcp was unwilling to do the detailed testing or unaware of what to look for, he and specialists never got the data needed to help me. Working w/ MWH is not cheap or easy BUT it’s a lot easier and less expensive than living a muted and isolated life while still spending $100s monthly to no avail.”

“Love is Medicine! And the Medicine is plentiful at this clinic! I run a health and wellness channel on YT and highly recommend this group of clinicians because they have been trained in the leading edge sciences, like epigenetics, that show just how treatable “untreatable” illnesses truly are! They will encourage and support you along your journey to wellness because that is the mission that they have trained for – using cutting edge testing, treatments, and methods to make sure you over come any of your health challenges, for good! Thank you Dr. Diane & Dr. Miles for everything you’ve done for me, your patients, the clinicians and doctors you train, and ultimately – the world!

“Working with Dr. Miles and the team at Medicine with Heart was the best medical decision I ever made.I have had respiratory problems since childhood, with doctor’s house calls to give me a shot of epinephrine to control my asthma. I also had lots of nasal congestion, phlegm, allergies, and respiratory infections. I weighed between 190 and 210 from 1980 until 2019. At 5’ 9”, that was overweight bordering on obese for 40 years.Mix sarcoidosis of the lungs in ’88, which went into permanent remission after prednisone steroid therapy, and a gall bladder removal in 1996 due to gall stones.By 2009, all these issues and their related complications had taken their toll to the point where I was diagnosed with CPD. For ten years, I took a daily dose of Symbicort steroid to control my asthma, and when it still flared up, I needed an emergency asthma inhaler. In addition, I regularly suffered from severe colds, some so bad they required emergency visits to the doctor, and more prednisone.Joint problems were starting, knees, a hip, a shoulder, and then my right hand. YUK.In January 2019, I made a change and began working with Dr. Miles. My treatment plan included strict dietary changes, supplements dosed from an analysis of my blood work, and a round of “binders” to remove toxins that had built up. And I practiced the recommended mindfulness techniques.The regime paid off quickly. By May I was down below 170, and I have stayed in the mid-160’s ever since.I weaned myself down from Symbicort over the winter and stopped steroids completely at the end of April, 2019. I have been steroid free AND asthma free since then, never requiring even the emergency inhaler.For the last two years, I have been cold free, with even my hay fever/allergies reduced to the “seldom” category. My joint and body pains have disappeared.Miles has given me a body with very little pain, no illnesses, and no drugs. In other words, a healthy life, and I love it every day, all day.THANKS!”

“Dr. Miles started me on a sibo treatment and a basic diet plan which restricted gluten, dairy and sugar. He also prescribed me with chelated magnesium, glutathione, vitamin D and K2, and b complex vitamins all of which were curated by their own team with 100% honest ingredients. I was lucky to have started my membership the same week they were conducting a mindfulness weekend, where I was submersed in meditation and Qui Gong training. I felt so uplifted by others in our training, who were also seeking a drug-free, pain-free life. I became so empowered to engage in mindful practices. It was from that point where even my mental health started to improve. It took a lot of self-discipline to refrain from my comfort foods and caffeine. But within 6 weeks, my chronic pain started to dissipate. I was able to engage in physical activities again. My anxiety was reduced. I was actually on such a rise that I decided to finally start working again. I told Diane in our consultation that I was physically and mentally incapable of working! It was such a rapid change. I couldn’t believe that my gut and stress levels were to blame for the many symptoms I was suffering for years. For every follow-up, Dr. Miles would thoroughly walk me through every question and concern I had, then follow our appointments with acupuncture. I would then meet with my nutritionist and we would talk about diet and exercise regimes that would best work for me and my condition. She would also provide b-vitamin injections upon request, which helped immensely when it came my energy levels. They really couldn’t have picked a better name for Medicine with Heart. They truly made me feel cared for and would always follow up and help me stay encouraged on my lifelong path of healing. Today marks exactly a year after I started my membership with Medicine with Heart. I am now at a healthy weight, visibly happier and a lot stronger! I could write a book on all they’ve taught me, but instead I’ll say thank you.”

“Dr. Mueller’s approach to medicine is refreshing! There is only so much you can do with western medicine and in my life I was needing a new approach. By addressing the whole body, nutritional diet factors, environmental factors, blood work, and incorporating ideas I had not previously known, I was able to break through with my conditions. I am not only experiencing less pain in my life, but through the process of healing guided by Medicine with Heart, I am now happy to say I have more consciousness surrounding how I eat, what to eat and when things are appropriate. Living by example Dr. Mueller has a vibrancy that makes you want to learn and know more about your body and overall health. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for new answers, a new approach to health, or in need of freedom from pain and limitations.”

We Understand How Exhausting this Disease Is
I used to have fibromyalgia. I would wake up and would immediately find myself doing a body scan to see how much pain I was in that day. The question was not IF I was in pain. The question was simply HOW bad was the pain that day. There was constantly a dull ache that filled my muscular system. Sometimes the pain would become more severe. Sometimes it would be sharp. Often the pain was deep, so very deep. It would take over my entire body and my mind. Activity could make it much worse. I had a constant headache and TMJ. Some days even walking up the stairs seemed like an amazing feat. I would have “good days” but never pain free days.
I would talk about my pain only with a few people. But mostly I kept it to myself. When I would talk about it, I would often get a response such as, “I am sore from the gym or yes, my back gets sore sometimes too.” Chronic pain is an impossible thing to understand unless one has gone through it. Therefore, most of the time I suffered in silence and this created an exhausting and all consuming mental-emotional battle.
Today, I am fibro free without medication. These days I run, lift weights, snowboard, participate in Orange Theory, dance, sing and spend time with family and friends. My journey has filled me with compassion for those who are suffering from fibromyalgia. Some days I reflect back on what my life used to be like and I am filled with such gratitude for the new pain free life I have.
Many members of the team at Medicine with Heart have also suffered from fibromyalgia as well. If you are on this page looking for a medical practice filled with those who understand the physical, emotional and mental intensity of fibromyalgia and have solutions, then you are at the right place.
