Hi all,
Thank you for your welcomes...I am new to this site. A little about me, I have been dx with several illness over the past few years and I am curious how everyone was dx with Fibro? I was dx in 2002 after the birth of my daughter. They told me because I was in a trama car wreck and that because my mother has it that those are the underlying factors as to why I have it. They ruled out MS and Lupus and really did nothing to treat it or help me. I still don't have a specific dr to treat it, But due to my other illness, Chiari Malformation along with several spinal deformities I see pain management and they are the ones who without directly treating the fibro, are. The meds I am on for everything else help with some of the fibro pain. I still get the nasty flare ups that last for 3 weeks sometimes. Does it last that long for anyone?
