Guest guest Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 I was dx with CFS before Fibromyalgia; about a year before. In 1990 CFS was just becoming a popular, though misunderstood dx. For a while they thought they always went hand in hand. I don't know if that's true today or not. I had several illnesses before I was dx with Fibro. I had IBS, Hypothyroid, ADD and Bronchial Asthma dx before I was 18. I had my tubes tied when I was 31 and noticed no change in my lifestyle. I had my last period when I was 40. At the time I stopped my gyn called it stress related because of my home situation, but he didn't know it would be permanent. Now I guess it was early onset menopause. I was dx with Fibro when I was 42. I was already dx with Depression, Anxiety Disorder, PTSD, DID and allergies.. I was over 50 before I was dx with Sleep Apnea, Narcolepsy, Acid Reflux and slightly high blood pressure. I don't know if menopause had anything to do with any of it.
