I was diagnosed with FM in 2007 by my PCP. He has been treating me with different things over the last 7 years. We are doing Lyrica right now and for the most part it has helped, but I have been feeling worse and worse for the last 4 months or so. I am also prescribed muscle relaxer and oxycodone. And with he pain getting worse my PCP has decided to send me to a Rhuemy. I am not sure what to expect I am not sure how long it will take for me to get into one either.
I weather is cold where I live (Maine). It isn't just the cold it is really everything from about june on. What is a Rheumy going to do for me that my PCP can't? Will he prescribe meds?
Can anyone help me with this?
Thank you
Kirsten
