Hi Anglea,

Welcome to the group. Even without the digonasis from the Dr. it sure sounds

like fibro. It is a hit and miss on what to do and what to take as it affects

each of us differently and our bodies respond differently to the meds. My arms

and neck kills my also when I drive, I have even nodded off driving.My body

doesnt not like to relax at all ,always full of knots and clenchs at all times .

I alos have restless limbs even during the day not just at night.I hope you find

a great dr, who will work with you get you feeling better soon. Good luck and

best wishes.

hugs, Della

new here. My name is

Hello all,

I have not been diagnosed but the doctor did mention this as a possibility. All

I know is I am sick of tired of being sick and tired all the time! Right now

even writing this e-mail seems almost too much. I have for the last two months

and at other times in my life, felt like I have the flu even though I do not

have the flu!

A little background on me. I have had severe Endometriosis for years and on

11/26/2007 had a complete hysterectomy with bowel resection due to the endo

having blocked off 95% of my bowel (you want to talk about pain, that was the

worst!!!!! not the surgery the blockage) As far as the Endo and surgery goes I

feel great now but since then I have had the muscle aches, and the almost

constant lack of energy/being tired.

I am not sure if this makes sense so please give me opinions. I do not sleep

well, a typical night is go to bed around 10 or 11 pm, ( I have 8 adopted kids

so it is busy here) lay there trying to sleep till about 2-3 am then I finally

fall asleep. I then proceed to wake at least 3-5 times and wake up for the day

around 8-9 am. I feel like if I could just sleep well then I would feel better

but the pain is keeping me from sleeping well! Also my brain does not seem to

shut off! I can lay there (asleep) worrying about the dumbest things! for

example, We had a bunch of snow here lately and even though my oldest knows how

to check to see if her school is closed I was constantly waking to check the

website even though I knew they would not announce it till 5 am but still I was

up many times before that checking.

There are even times when I will make a dinner and then sit down with my family

and only be able to take a bite or two because I am too tired. I don't like

driving anywhere any more because it takes so much out of me and my arms hurt

too badly as well as my neck. They feel like I want a massage but if you touch

them it hurts worse!

I truly do not care if they say Fibro or what ever I just need an answer! The

problem I run into is doctors who do not want to say anything definite!

Thanks for listening
