    I've always wondered the same about the FM diagnosed

    I was going to an endo for over 10 yrs trying to get THYROID supported, I believed it was sluggish but doc always said " you are fine"....then one endo I saw, touched around the thyroid and then pressed other points and said your thyroid is fine, but you have FM. I had never heard the word...

    FM diagnosed in 1999, but OA all my life (76 now)

    Anyone else here challenged with OA as well. At this point I believe OA is all worse with aging and a mess from hip replacement. I joined today, but not new to an FM/CFS support group.
