I've had fibromyalgis since the early 90's and rhabdomyolis for the past 2 years and do many things to help control it. I read of this supplement and went to get right away and after 4 days, I'm SOLD!! My husband is amazed at the difference in me! Its a little pricy but its well worth the cost to get my life back!

I am having issues similar to others, extreme lethargy, inability to concentrate and muscle pain has been made much worse. I took two scoops / day X 3 days then one scoop on the fourth day. It's day five and I feel only slightly better. I hope this did not do permanent damage.

As a CVID patient, I have benefitted from this compound (brand name Corvalen) since the moment I ingested it. It is rare to find something so effective to treat the symptoms associated with my primary immune deficiency and I am optimistic about my energy increase and lessened muscle aches.

ribose has helped, although it may lead you to try and do too much and cause a cfs crash as it has done with me it will stop working and you may need to stop then go back as with all cfs meds overall positive except for high cost.

I had a marked increased in energy. I ran out of ribose after taking it for about a month and returned to my previous level of energy; when I got it again, I again had a marked increase in energy. I really like it!

I find the after-taste to linger on in my mouth and is hard to get rid of.

I have been taking Ribose for a short time and I can already feel a difference plus I have noticed repair of a damaged muscle in my foot and knees.

I also have CFS. This product has helped reduce muscle stiffness and achiness. I am thrilled and don't take nearly the amount Ibuprofen.

While D-ribose (Corvalen) did not cure me it did help me. I've been taking it for 1 year and have been able to do more than I've been able to do over the past 14 years. I've tried nearly every treatment for CFS and this is one of the few that helped me. Again, it's not a cure but any little improvement is good and gives me hope.
