Guest guest Posted May 6, 2002 Report Share Posted May 6, 2002 I cannot believe a doctor told you that!!! I have never, ever, been told that FM is fatal...I find that to be total bullshit!!! I think you should have punched that doctors lights out. Jerk w/ a capital J! Fatal Fibromyalgia Hi Folks: I never post. I am always a lurker but I thought this might be worth posting. I have been a total wreck since I went to an othopedic surgeon for my osteoporosis last Friday for a follow-up. He told me that my x-rays were terrible but that HE COULDN'T HELP ME. He told me to go to a rheumatologist. He also leaned over to me closely and in a stage whisper proclaimed, " And of course, you DO know that Fibro is FATAL! " Then he proceeded to write down the name of a book he recommended for me called " What Doctors Don't Tell You About Fibromyalgia " . He didn't know the name of the author. Well, that pretty much made my day. It also pretty much blew away whatever hope I ever had of watching my daughter grow up. Feedback?
