Finally, after hoooooooow many years of drs and symptoms, today i got the Fibro dx. This even after my current dr had told me that the adrenal fatigue was showing up for me as Fibro, it was still not listed in my chart as a dx. Having been denied disability and now doing the appeal (pick a dx, any dx) at least now what I say (pain-wise) will match my charts.
Now back to trying to explain that DID/MPD, complex PTSD, anxety, depression, panic attacks and fibro are alllllllllllll connected and all need to be treated as real, chronic issues. __________________ Credits: ChildlikeEmpress and Pseudonym for this lovely image.   alt="Universal Life Church | ULC" border="0">

I'm glad for you that you got something that explains your pain.
I hope it works out for you with the appeal.

Good kiya!
I mean not good that you have fibro, but good that you got some results. Your welcome to check out the fibro check-in thread in chronic pain! We all sort of keep up with one another there.

Here is a book that might help. I ran across these two when they first combined FMS with CMP (I have CMP)... and showed the differences but weren't sure about causes I think.
You're right that the medical jury is still out on this one. However, the arthritis foundation has taken it under it's wings. You might find more help there: http://www.arthritis.org/disease-cen...?disease_id=10 Good wishes! __________________ |

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