I'm confused, can someone help?

[Guest guest]

I am very new to this and am hoping to get some help. I am a

divorced 33 yr old woman. I am a single mom to 2 young children (4 &

6 years old). I have just recently been diagnosed by my general

physician as having fibromyalgia. She also ran some tests and said

that I am positive for rheumatoid arthritis. She has placed me on

Cymbala for depression and Celebrex for pain. She has allowed me 15

vicodin per month. They don't work anyway. I am having a horrible

time functioning and the Celebrex is making me nauseaus and is making

my headaches even worse. I am the sole supporter of us, so missing

work is not an option. I am so tired and achy, I am crying in the

mornings and evenings and have actually had to cry in the restroom at

work, but put up a smile for everyone else to see. My friends think

I am being " overly emotional " and I'm feeling very weak and

disappointed with myself. I love my daughters, but feel like after

dinner, dishes, bath, cuddling and books, that I can't move anymore.

Am I crazy?? Will this ever get better? I have an appointment in

January with a Arthritis doctor. Is this a good thing, or will he

dismiss me as being a whiner?? Please help me understand this

better.

Thank you so much.
