I am 67 years old and in hindsight have been suffering with symptoms of fibro for years now. At the moment I have a flare up with headaches, severe aches in my legs and arm and ankles. It is difficult to sleep at night because of the pain and I wake most mornings still tired and depleted. IBS is also a problem at the moment if I'm not constipated I have diaherra. I am going to see my GP on Monday to ask what I can do a d to hopefully get a diagnosis. I have not been diagnosed by a doctor and hope my doctor is able to make a diagnosis when I see her. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I should approach her about this. Also any suggestions for medication that might help me with this flare up? I take 60mg Cymbalta at the moment but that was prescribed for depression.
