Could my painful muscles be due to another autoimmune condition.

[Guest guest]

I have had problems with my muscles and constipation since a stomach virus was

bought here by my neighbours daughter. This is still circulating, as I got in

touch with my surgery as my headache was bad making me feel worse.

They mentioned that this virus was about, but I said I'm constipated and do not

have that bug. Is it possible that I am reacting in a different way with

autoimmune illness.

Could my GP have interpreted the ESR test wrong by saying that it was normal at

a time when I had problems with what I was told was Polymyalgia.

At the moment I have been instructed to cut it down to half 5mg pill a day then

go back in just under a fortnight now, and he will do another test to see the

effects it has on results by reducing it further.

Is it also possible to suffer autoimmune illness to anything placed inside our

bodies such as metal or these mesh tapes etc.

Could also another autoimmune illness in turn affect the treatment of

Hypothyroidism, or make it worse.

I do have an appointment at the optician's today, but I think constipation

causes the headaches, so have gone back to taking my VIT C in a higher dose,

including prunes.
