I Have Questions

[Guest guest]

I don't seem to have all the Tender points. Mine are mostly in the

upper body. My neck and shoulders are extremely sensitive and

painfull most of the time(my jaw also) And I have had Migraines as

far back as I can remember. But there's no tender point on my arms or

hips or above the knee. Does anyone else have that experience?

I was just diagnosed yesterday, but I've had symptoms for years. I

even fell and broke a bone in my foot because I was walking with

stiffness 2 years ago. I didn't tell anyone because I thought I was

just out of shape, and I can barely make it thoough the mall with

people, before everything starts hurting(arms, legs, feet, hips,

back, neck, head) Has anybody else had that experience?? Just kept

hoping it would go away?.

I also have Carpal Tunnel, and Sleep Apnea. I thought taking care

of the Apnea would clear everything up. And I'm getting very

depressed,, to think this is my life. The life of a chronic

whinner.NO more dancing or running..I doubt if I could even ride a

bike anymore, and I certainly can't play the piano right now..

But, I didn't come here to whine, and I'm sorry this is so long.

My doc gave me a script for Naproxen, and I asked him for Klonopin

or Celexa(I just picked 2 that I saw on line) and he said no, those

are anti-depressants. But, don't a lot of people with FMS take them

to help them sleep?

I also used to take Prozac but I quit because I felt like I didn't

need them(and didn't want to pay for them) Does anyone know if they

are Seratonin Re-uptake inhibitors?

Shouldn't I be taking ...one of those?

What will my doc be looking for in my blood, to see if I have FMS??

They misplaced my bloodtest and the doc was looking for it when I was

there. I know they got it because they sent me a Cholesterol diet.

Does anyone else have APNEA?? I just started on my BI-PAP machine 3

weeks ago. I was expecting MUCH much more results, and that is why I

decided to " come out " ..LOL
