Ok - I have been doing research on my present medical problems with RA & Fibro and this is what I have come up with.... I HAVE BOTH of THEM!!, and this is the list of symptoms one may suffer from and I have all of them but one (and the one I have not yet been Dx with (TMJ) might be what is causing my present eye / face pain) - go figure.

* * * * * * * * *

*Fatigue:

*Emotional Liability: cry more easily, be more anxious and fearful.

*Depression:

*Low Thyroid Function:

*Gastrointestinal Problems: IBS

*Swollen Glands, Chemical & Light Sensitivity, Headaches:

*Chronic Pain:

*Fibromyalgia: more pain involved

*Low Blood Sugar: (not for sure about this one)

*Candida Yeast Infections: Sinus infections

*Tingling hands, Ringing ears, Cold toes, Cold fingers: Caused by poor circulation and who knows what.

*Overdoing: You overwork when your are feeling good, and then feel worse for days afterward.

*Fluttering Heart, Panic Attacks, Rapid Heartbeat, Mitral Valve Prolapse: low blood pressure

*Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction Syndrome: TMJ - tremendous jaw-related face and head pain.
