Hello all,
Let me write you a short novel... hahaha
I'm 27 and was recently diagnosed with fibro by a rheumatologist after enduring months of pain, starting with my knees. After seeing my primary, both were x-ray'd and nothing found. I had to fight for a Lyme test to be done and came up...

Could someone glance and give a recommendation? The Dr we went to didnt impress. Talked fast and grouped everyone into fibro.
Couldnt get the saliva test but most blood worked looked ok except t3 and rh.
Thoughts are a thyroid doctor, not the fibro dr.
Didnt want to overwhelm with info, just...

Hi all, I was diagnosed with fibro a couple of years ago. But after describing my symptoms to my Rheumy we decided that I've probably had this for about 20 years. I've always had pain in my shoulders and lower back. The 'don't touch it' pain that makes you want to cry just getting dressed.

I am just trying to figure out what the heck is going on with my body.
I was originally diagnosed with fibro about 6 months a go, but then after blood work came back Dr said I could have lupus or Sjorgens. I have a high positive Ana and a high SS b ;he did a lot of other blood work and...
I was diagnosed with Sjogrens Syndrome a few years back. It all started with my severe dry eyes. My left eye actually does not make any tears, and the right one just 2 mm. This was done with a Schirmer's Test which they use a piece of special paper in your eye to measure your tears. Normal...

1) people rely on our un-educated doctors too much
2) people are hoping for miracle drug that cures all
3) no one mentioned food intolerances/sensitivity
4) elimination diet were hardly mentioned
5) if I ever...
