Some years ago I was given a rather reluctant and vague diagnosis of Fibromyalgia but without any treatment suggestions or advice. I had blood tests for various illnesses like RA and vitamin deficiencies but nothing stood out at the time. I'm still unsure whether this is the condition I have.
For about 15 years now I have had "flare-ups" of what I can only describe as flu-like symptoms, aches and pains, a feeling of being unwell but not ill enough to go to bed. They used to happen about every six months but as I get older (I'm 63 now) they seem to be happening every 2 weeks and I hardly have any days where I feel completely well anymore.
Do others here have similar symptoms and flare-ups where you just feel generally un-well but can't put your finger on what's wrong?
How do you treat these flare-ups? I'd be interested to know your symptoms.
Thank you
