Should I look for another rheumy?---(update)

[Guest guest]

I am going to try to get copies of the tests. That is a great idea. I

did not even think about it. I also need to start my own medical

records book. I have one for my daughter who has juvenile arthritis.

Anyway, I made an appointment with my regular doctor and will see

what she thinks. I also got a list of doctors from my area who

specialize in FM. I plan on showing it to my doctor to see what she

thinks. I am just not sure if I want to try that first rheumy again.

Her and her nurse rubbed me the wrong way. I just want to find out

WHAT I HAVE then start a plan on how to deal with it!!! Tonight my

neck is hurting like crazy...---
