Fibromyalgia

    Hi,

    I'm new to this website so forgive me if I'm posting in the wrong place etc. I have been told by a rheumatologist that I have fibromyalgia. He said I had a mild case of it but after waiting for 2 months for the appointment to go see him I had gotten a lot better. Unfortunately now it's getting worse again and I really don't know how to deal with it. It still really isn't that bad right now but it's enough that I'm not sleeping much at all, and I have a constant ache in my neck and back and oddly in the balls of my feet...makes it fun to walk ;) Also my vision is really blurred, some days it's worse than others but very bad today. Does anyone else suffer from this? Today, I'm having a tough time with it, I feel a bit like a baby for going on about it.

    I was just wondering if anybody has any current advice or treatment secrets. The specialist told me to exercise, which I am trying to do but the pain is getting in the way a bit. I would go back to see him again but he charges €180 per appointment and he didn't really offer me anything other than to tell me to exercise. I wasn't sure whether to belive his diagnosis to be honest, I had heard that fibro was what they diagnosed as a quick answer..I'd love to believe this is something that will be gone soon. After my initial 6weeks of torture from it I had been better and I thought it was over but the past 10 days have been just like the first 10 days the first time.

    I'm probably not making much sense, but I would really appreciate any advice out there..thanks :)
