Guest guest Posted July 17, 2002 Report Share Posted July 17, 2002 Hi a, Thanks so much for all the links on Chronic pain, I've sent some of them to my aunt and have convinced her to make sure that my grandmother gets to a Rheumy as soon as possible. I've tried to put into words (calmly) just how painful RA can be and seem to have convinced her that doctor is a nut. I can't believe how a doctor can be so insensitive to suffering, incredible, so much for the " calling " ! Thanks also for the links on costochondritis, you really are amazing :-)) I don't want to self diagnose but it does describe exactly how I feel, I will mention that plus the rash thing to my Rheumy when I see her later today. Thanks so much, I think I needed some reassurance that I had some valid symptoms before talking to her - I really hate going to doctors, I always have this weird feeling they are thinking I'm just a hypochondriac so sometimes stay quiet about the " little things " . I will be sure to ask her about the Bowen Technique as well, I see the site mentions is as a treatment aid for Fibromyalgia (sp?!) - I don't have this but since many in the group do I'll be sure to get some feedback for everyone. I'm glad your nerve pain has gone but sorry to hear about the other arm, sounds painful, hope it improves fast. Hugs, Heidi _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
