A thought... what if something else was wrong... would I know????

[Guest guest]

I think sometimes that I would never know if I had somethig else wrong instead

of FM. I have so many symptoms with fibro that I would probably chalk it all up

to that. Alot of people here have chest pain with fibro. They have numbness

and tingling of various areas. We have pain almost anywhere at anytime. We

have bowel syptoms, vision symptoms, and dizziness, weakness all over or in

certain areas such as our hands.

Fibromyalgia is a cruel joke on us all. It is unseen by others and ravages

our lives to shreads. The really cruel joke is how it makes us look like

hypochondriacs.

3 nights ago I was lying in bed, sound asleep, when I woke up with a tremendous

pain in my back side. I thought about taking a Hydroc but I never take them at

night but the paid did not go away. I concentrated on different parts of my

bodies, sometimes that works, but the pain only increased. I started to

consider that it might not be fibro but how would I know? I finally took

another Hydroc....sometime later I fell asleep only to be waken again by the

tremendous pain. I got up, crawled to the bathroom, and gave birth to a hugh

kidney stone. Oh well, you never know. That is why my Dr. had me have a

complete physical, mamogram, papst smear, ekg, eye exam, dental checkup so they

could establish some sort of base line for me. Oh yeah, the bone density check.

I am so confident in my Dr....we are a team and I am blessed.
