For the last two years of going to different doctors and feeling like I was seeing the wrong doctors, since I wasn't only diagnosed with this but I was also diagnosed with Diabetic neuropathy, which honestly I did expect being a diabetic for so long. My symptoms were much different when I first became sick I had tremors and I was sent to a horrible neurologist who ran tests yes but couldn't find an answer or tell me the truth and I gave up and saw a different doctor who told me I had both but I didn't want to believe what I was hearing or understand how could someone have both. So I saw another doctor who sat me down and tried to explain it but I still didn't want to believe it... but until I had a discussion with my medical Dr who is also handling my pain management. I ran out of perocet over the weekend and this morning my entire neck was so hot to the touch my partner thought I had a fever, but I told her that I was ok it was just I had to get to the doctor but anyways I talked to him about this symptom and he basically told me that it was the fibromyalgia issues that I was having. I know for the last year I have 4 bulges in my neck and nothing has worked but to really hear that all of this is why I am so miserable really is hard to take in. Which I am sure a few of you understand where I am coming from. He also told me that no matter what I do I will be on these narcotics for the rest of my life which I am so scared about. I just wish there were other options for this (Yes I am on muscle relaxers and I received many side affects by Lyrica).
So basically that's my story and I really need support to take this all in, because I do have two children and my 1 child doesn't even remember when Mom was well. So I know there is going to be a rough road ahead but making some new friends here would be great too. Thanks
