I've been seeing a rheumatologist these past 2 months because my joint/muscle pain got so bad it became debilitating and I could not get out of bed. I'm 19, and I've been dealing with this issue since I was 13 and it's only gotten worse. When I was 13, it was discovered that my knee bones turn inward and grind against each other which causes some of my pain, but my doctors did nothing to treat it. When I was 15, I went to a doctor who told me everything was all in my head, which is why I didn't see anyone else until recently, out of necessity.
This new doctor has told me that I have fibromyalgia as well as "something else". He told me that it might be lupus, arthritis, or some other autoimmune condition. After numerous tests and visits, however, he still has not told me what exactly I have! Has he just not figured it out yet? Why don't I know? I'm frustrated

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
