Re: new here. My name is ..Hi have u seen a Rhuemie Dr

[Guest guest]

u sure sound like u have Fibro. My Dr, suspected it but after

several visits and different TX had me see a Rheumie and she was the one to

diagnois the Fibro. I feel for you because the unknown is worse than feeling

this way and having no name, though trust me though if you do get the diagnois

be prepared to be treated like there is nothing wrong with you, because you look

alright. There are always people out there who treat us unkind as they no

nothing about the disease. I can only say get rest when your body tells you to

and don't push yourself to do anything your feeling you really can't you only

pay for it later. Take Care

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[Non-text portions of this message have been
