went to the hospital this morning, finally got an appointment with the rheumatologist ...... he is 99% certain i have fibromyalgia, apparently everything that i've been moaning to the doctor about for the last few years are all symptoms
i have had blood tests galore, (hormones, infection, etc)and urine tests, and nothing has shown up,other than i'm not menopausal lol and everything is normal...... but you know something isn't right when you constantly feel like you have been run over by a train.
so i've had another blood test today, for vitamin deficiencies, and thyroid problems, and a couple of others .......
and he's put me on amitriptyline, he reckons, that, combined with the duloxetine i'm already on, should help me sleep and hopefully take some of the pain away. he is also sending me for physio
i thought i'd feel better if i got some sort of diagnosis ..... but now after having read up on it, i don't know how to feel other than pee'd off and fed up and miserable.
anyone have it or know anyone with it, and have any advice please?
