I have been diagnosed with fibermialga, chronic migraines, and seizures. I cant seem to get any help with pain they always want me to do therapy it just seems to aggravate my body im not able as it is to keep up with house work and my daughter what can i do

Over the past 2 years I have been tested for about everything. Docs recently diagnosed Fibromyalgia...but some symptoms don't fit. Eyelid inflammation, butterfly red rash (came and went) costchondritis, low grade fever, chills, extreme fatigue and more. Blood work indicates slight inflammation. Something else is wrong. What can it be?


It's not the cost...just don't have the confidence that after seeing six doctors who can't give me an answe, that a doctor can diagnose me over the internet

My health issue is fibromyalgia,Ive had it over 14 years..Right now I am going through a period of severe pain throughout my whole body..Nothing seems to help eleviate any part of this horrible faze..Ive had it before but it would leave within 4-5 weeks..This time it is almost 5 months with no let up..Do you have any idea of how to stop this awful pain to get some relief???

Hi, im 41 yrs old,height 5ft 2in, weight 10st 4lb with 5 children from 23-7yrs. After the birth of my last child i was in constant pain, aching, stabbing etc in all my muscles & feeling generaly unwell. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia a few yrs later after having other test to rule out other things. The aches & pain is widespread but i have this constant aching, stabbing, burning, sore , throbbing in my rhomboids, it knocks me sick & makes me so miserable. My knees throb if ive walked for along time & my elbows throb. I am taking tramadol 50mgs 2 every 4 hours no more than 8 & paracetamol & codeine eff 8/500mg & escitalopram . I suffer from depression & anxiety. The widespread pains are the same as the rhombiods as described. When my husband rubs my rhomboids & puts pressure on them it sort of soothes them but doesnt get rid of it nothing does & i could have him doing it all the time. Is this fibromyalgia or is there something else wrong? Ive also recently found out that i have Partial Right Bundle Block & its well documented i my notes but ive never bee told is this something to worry about & what causes it?

I was diagnosed several years ago by an orthapeadic surgeon in australia with multilevel spinal disc degeneration, and in nz 8 yrs ago with fibromyalgia ...recently i have been suffering severe dizzy/light headed spells, trouble concentrating/ brain fog and tingling and numbness in the three smallest fingers in both hands, pain in my hip joints...I dont believe this is just from fibro...in fact i sometimes wonder if there has been a misdiagnosis of the fibro as apart from a few aches i lead a normal life and every now and then take codiene for the pain...Any ideas??? The pain in my feels like its inflamed and i sometimes get severe pain running up my spine ....

Hello, I've been having so many issues and over time trying to narrow where all my problems are coming from (CFS/Fibromyalgia) and I am almost certain it is Gut / intestine related. I go through phases of having no appetite for weeks, my stool is very inconsistent with the last few being dark green and muddy ( I had a green smoothie maybe why?) with no consistency. My stomach can go from being flat to being blown up like a balloon making me look 6months pregnant. It is not accompanied by gas or pain. It can happen even if i drink some water. other symptoms that may be related: skin redness (pictures) that changes but never fully goes away. Bloodshot eyes, high blood pressure (the last 2 times my doctor tried it was 160 then 140, I don't drink or smoke), urine is very foamy recently and can be dark even if I am drinking enough water. Sleep problems, joint weakness, fatigue and im incredibly sensitive to chemicals e.g. cleaning products that can cause me to become dizzy. Lower back ache when tilting. Oh and I developed a intolerance to banana recently, I was thinking maybe I have gut damage? Sorry please ignore the top posts, I re did it more constructively: Hi again Dr XXXXXXX I've been having so many issues and over time trying to narrow where all my problems are coming from (CFS/Fibromyalgia) and I am almost certain it is Gut / intestine related. After I had my TSH level checked they said it was normal, I will try and retrieve the actual results soon. I also has a celiac blood test which came back negative, but i still think gluten could be causing me problems. I am currently trying to go gluten free for a month, but it is so difficult to stick to. I went for a second round of bloodtests and here are the results: Blood Haematinic levels: Ferritin 120.000 ug/L Liver function test: Serum total protein 74.000g g/L Serum albumin 44.000 g/L Serum globulin 30.000 g/L Serum bilirubin level 14.000 umol/L Serum alkaline phosphatase 66.000 iu/L Serum ALT level 35.000 iu/L Serum Calcium 2.400 mmol/L Corrected serum calcium level 2.320 ol/L Serum C reactive protein level 1.000mg/L I go through phases of having no appetite for weeks, my stool is very inconsistent sometimes very muddy texture. My stomach can go from being flat to being blown up like a balloon making me look 6months pregnant. It is not accompanied by gas or pain. It can happen even if i drink some water. other symptoms that may be related: skin redness (pictures) that changes but never fully goes away. Bloodshot eyes, high blood pressure (the last 2 times my doctor tried it was 160 then 140, I don't drink or smoke) urine is very foamy recently and can be dark even if I am drinking enough water. Sleep problems, fall asleep fine but find it difficult to stay asleep for more than 3-4hours. joint weakness fatigue sensitive to chemicals e.g. cleaning products that can cause me to become dizzy. Lower back ache when tilting. Can't have bananas anymore, they give me stomach cramps that are incredibly painful. I used to eat a banana everyday. Increased irritability Brain fog / can't concentrate properly. Usually have cold hands and feet, and I noticed that sometimes the first half of my finger nails go a slight purple/blue color. Sometimes my heart will begin beat hard at rest and a 1-2 times per month i get chest pains (stabbing pain) I will answer any questions I also always have dry lips thank you

I suffer from Fibromyalgia and in a lot of pain. My job is very heavy lifting and shift work. I keep active, walking, hiking, swimming etc... but 9% of the time I am in pain. With this pain I suffer depression at times. As I am getting older the pain is getting worse. I am concerned about starting Cymbalta due to all the side effects mentioned. I did take one pill, one day and I felt sick to my stomach. With my job I can't feel like that. Is this the medication for me? Thank you. Dale Carr.
