OK - I'm now thinking that I have fibro - so much of my unexplained aches and pains and exhaustion is all making sense now. But I have questions for you, if you all don't mind:1. Do any of you get aches and pains on one side more than another? I seem to have more stuff going on with my right side, though both sides seem to be affected.2. Have any of you repeatedly had muscle pulls or spasms? For years I've been prone to having pulls or spasms that require physical therapy, pain meds, and muscle relaxers. It never seems to be related to any particular activity - all of a sudden something tightens up and there's incredible pain. When it happens in my back it literally takes my breath away. My doc says my muscles are always "tight" and asks me if I'm under stress, but it seems like a normal mode of operation for me.3. Did your regular doc diagnose you or a rheumatologist? I kinda want to go to my regular doc because he knows my history so well, but I'm afraid he won't believe me. He's usually great about everything, but fibro seems like it would be hard to convince your doc about.Thanks in advance for your answers!------------------Fear can hold you prisoner.......hope can set you free.Missycat >^.^<
