Hi guys, I’m just new here & still trying to get to grips with the site I’ve had a really hard 18 months I’ve been suffering so badly. I’ve had loads of physical issues, which were being treated as individual problems until I done some research & realised all my symptoms fit the criteria for fibromyalgia or possibly multiple sclerosis. I know there is no blood test or specific test for diagnosing fibro. However my doctor took blood tests on Tuesday after me convincing him to look at all my symptoms possibly being caused by one condition. I am being checked for things like lupus, rheumatoid arthritis & other autoimmune issues. If they come back negative he said I will be looking at a fibro diagnosis. I don’t really know anything about it to be honest. All I know is that whatever is going on is absolutely soul destroying. I’m 37 with a 2 year old autistic son. It’s so hard being in constant excruciating pain & trying to be the best mum to my baby. Does anyone know what happens after a definitive diagnosis of fibro? Can any one give me any self help tips? I am so grateful for anyone who takes the time to read my post & any help & info will be greatly appreciated. Hope you are all doing well & it’ll be my pleasure to communicate with you all. Take care
