Hi Suzieq,
Thank you for your comments after my posting. Wish I had something concrete to tell you about diagnosis and treatment. I have taken Lyrica, but it did nothing for the problem. I found this web site at the same time that my shrink ordered various blood tests to measure inflammation in the body as well as Vitamin B12 levels. I am, to a great extent, disabled by the condition. By the time Spring came this last year, I had become extremely depressed...too much time in the house and very few friends around. At that time, I had to go on a couple antidepressents and an anti-anxiety med. I'll hope to hear from you. Hope you are finding strength and hope. Lulu
