I think I have fibromyalgia but non supportive Doctor
Hi, i am 44 years old. i think I've had Fibro for years. my first symptoms were waves of overwhelming tiredness, brain fog and lack of concentration at work. For long enough the Doctors said it was because I was a full time working mum with 2 young kids. Then I got sore shoulders and neck, where my head at times felt too heavy for my neck. I also have pain on insides of elbows, knees, hips, ankles, weak feeling in my hands as well as pain in my hands. Low libido, and pain during and after intercourse. I started to experience frequent shivers across my head and down my back, and infrequent muscle twitches. I also have sensitivity to light and bladder problems & IBS. My skin feels like it is badly bruised at times, but yet I've not been given a formal diagnosis several years later. Do you think this sounds like Fibro?
Also I have 2 sisters who are thought to have Fibro, one who also has thyroid problems but are still currently awaiting further investigations.
