Hello! I can't tell begin to tell you how happy I was to find this forum tonight. For quite some time now, I've been struggling with a wide (and seemingly disconnected and bizarre) set of symptoms that have baffled my doctor. Luckily, he may have been baffled, but he is not dismissive. I give him huge credit for being ready and willing to refer out to each and every type of specialist who might provide us with another missing puzzle piece.
After doing extensive research on my own, I started to feel more and more certain that I probably have fibromyalgia. When I talked to my PCP about this a couple of weeks ago, he agreed, and said that he's been keeping it in his back pocket, because he needs to rule out potential diseases and disorders that could be life threatening.
I have an appointment scheduled with a practice that specializes in fibromyalgia and other chronic conditions this Tuesday. I was told to expect to be there for about two hours. Would anyone be willing to walk me through what I should expect at this appointment?
Thanks so much for your time. I look forward to getting to know as many of you as possible!
