HI Everyone I’m new to Fibromyalagia I was Just diagnosed yesterday I had no idea my Rheumatologist was even checking me for this but to my surprise here I am. I first went to the Rheumy for Psoriasis to rule out Psoriatic Psoriasis so he did all kinds of blood work x-rays and a complete physical in which took two visits he checked me from head to toe and poked me what seemed to be very hard and extremely painful made me jump and ouch a lot to the point I asked is this supposed to hurt he replied no it’s not and It really hurt I had no idea how much until he pushed on certain places around my neck shoulders, elbows, legs back and so on I will say that was the most complete physical I think I have ever had so when all was said and done he looked at me and said from the x-rays my back is out of alignment and have the starting signs of arthritis however I have Fibromyalgia and I’m sure like most I was shocked and confused with this diagnosis I mean I have Psoriasis how does one person end up with two issues that are so controversial is it real or not gee I feel crazed at the moment …. I look forward to getting to know everyone and learning more information. My rheumy has me on Lyrica, MTX, Folic Acid, My
Physiatrist has me on Zoloft 300mg ,Xanax 1 mg 4 times a day and 2.5mg Abilify I realy wish i did not need to take so much meds.. I just am having a really hard time with this My husband said I'm in deniel I dont think I am I just find it hard to belive I feel like this is something the doctor throw at you when there is no reason for anything I hope someone can help me with this I have appointment with my Psyc Monday maybe he will be able to help me with this I'm so crazed right now sorry for the Rant
