I have not been diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I seem to have several of the symptoms. I was diagnosed with Mono 8 years ago and have had several different and conditions since then. I then developed hypothyroidism. The chronic pain started after that. It began in my hips. A rheumatologist treated me at the time for tendonitis and also said he thought I had a condition that effected my muscles and tendons, but he did not diagnos me. He did treat me with injections in my hips and thighs and they worked wonderfully for almost a year. Unfortunantly, he then retired. The pain has now been in my shoulder and neck for approximately a year. I have had physical therapy with no results. Muscle relaxers 3 times a day did not help. I am trying my third Dr in April and I hope to get some relief. Do my symptoms sound like fibromyalgia to anyone else? I am so scared this new Dr. will dismiss my symptoms and not put it all together. It's becoming so hard to work at my job...the lack of sleep and constant pain is making it hard to function. Am I on the right track?
