436 VotersPlease select one:
Vitamin D deficiency, IBS and hiatus hernia- something else too but not sure what that is yet
Adult Onset Stills Disease.
I could only click on one.....so I also need to add spinal injury, occipital neuralgia, IBS, anxiety, depression!!
Sjogrens syndrome,vitamin B12 deficiency,anemia and suspected carpol tunnel.All from having Rheumatoid arthritis.
I wonder how many of you have mental illness as well which is why it took too many years for my fibro to be diagnosed - i have borderline personality disorder bi polar aggorophobia ibs and arthritis of the neck
Hi sucky. My daughter has BPD also. She struggles terribly at te moment!! She is agoraphobic too!!
Hi due to my autism, my pain was expressed differently to expected. I was diagnosed with fibro 12 years after becoming ill. My mental illness of complex post traumatic stress disorder was diagnosed only 2 years ago 20 years after I became unwell. I am only just starting art therapy. However my fibro began during my childhood trauma and I know the 2 can be linked fibro and complex ptsd.
ME, IBS, Depression. Don't know what some of the given illnesses are.
I have allsorts of problems with the fibro , ibs , bladder problems , but just been diagnosed with loeys - dietz , now they dont know if its the fibro or the other condition ,
Fybromyalgia/ME/Cfs, Osteoarthritis, IBS, Depression, Migraines 5/7 days pw, HIV
Kinda peeved off with life not a good existence I took Morphine sulphate which zombified me so swapped over to Tramadol
bipolar/depression, ibs, gastric reflux, bulging disc and degenerative spine, overactive/hypersensitive bladder, double vision and tinnitus x
Much the same as other people above, Depression, IBS, gastric reflux, bulging disc and osteoperosis. Frequent water infections and food intolerance - god help us when we get old and infirm too!
FM, RSI, Depression, Fatigue, Anxiety, COPD, Indigestion, Reflux, IBS. Prescribed Tramadol but do not wish to take drugs which affect the bowels because of IBS and Tramadol and such painkillers can affect this.
Diverticulitis
Lyphodeama
Depression
Arthritis
Hiatus Hernia
Dilated Bile Duct
Cervical Spondylitis.
Will think of more later but I'm beginning to bore myself now!!
I also have CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) and ME (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis. I also have Osteoarthritis and Migraines.
Forgot to mention I also have Tennis and Golfer's Elbow in both arms and have had three steroid injections in each arm to no avail.
I've also been diagnosed with RLS (Restless Leg Syndrome)
Hi Liberty - pardon my ignorance, but if you have CFS & ME & Fibro - how do they differentiate between what symptoms are from what disorder as some of the symptoms are the same for all three (althought I know they're not the same disorders). I've just not spoken to anyone yet (apart from you!) who has all three so I'm just being nosy, because a lot of doctors are really reluctant to diagnose any of those.
ceoliacs, ibs and at the moment i am under a digestive diseases specialist due to extreme thickening and nerve damage to the small intestine awaiting for a full diagnosis as to cause and a sucessful treatment (fingers crossed) to at least give me some quality of life. x
Diabetes 2 which is a real pain as I can't cheer myself up with cake and chox, lol!!!! And I need to keep an eye on my weight. *sigh* x
I have FMS and CFS & Osteoporosis in my feet!!!
I have had
burst appendix
peritonitis
abcess in the pelvis that burst
numerous ovarian cysts
endometriosis leading to
full hysterectomy which involved emergency bowel surgery due to adhesions
5 hour adhesiology

part of shin bone sawn off
blood clot and septicaemia
bone spur in foot removed
I have injections in my knuckles and shoulder for arthritis

Am having endoscopy on Monday as three blood tests have proved positive for coeliac.
to top it all, i fell down the stairs at Christmas and damaged the ligaments in my knee, which is still killing me! Hello Tramadol.
Apart from that......I'm fine. and I am told I am fit to work by DWP!!!!
I also have Osteoarthritis, ME, IBS, Asthma, Migraine, and a medicaly diagnosed condition that I can never remember the name of, it causes chest pains that scarily mimic a heart attack but are caused by the tissues and ligaments in your chest cavity becoming inflamed. The biggest problem I face is that once you get a Fibro diagnosis from the Rheumatologist you can't get anyone in the medical proffesion to consider any other problems you suffer with, all you get is " oh it's your Fibro, learn to live with it ". My sister has Rheumatoid Arthritis and although ALL my symptoms are the same and the problems caused are a mirror no one will entertain that I have the same thing as blood tests have all come back negative but a locum Gp I saw has said this does n ot mean you don't have it, but once a consultant has said no there is no arguement......
sorry, forgot to add the depression to the list and the appalling memory.....lol
Spondylilosthesis (spine out of place, vertebra slipped forward)
Possible ulna nerve damage
Glaucoma
Depression
Like others I wanted to enter more than one condition, especially as it asks what 'conditions', which is a plural term.
Fibromyalgia
Trochanteric Burstitis
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Arthritis
Depression
Anxiety & Panic attacks
osteoporosis,osteoarthritis,ibs,psoriosis
sorry including fibromyalgia and depression.
I was also amazed that only one box could be ticked. Besides Fibromyalgia I have 3 badly worn discs - dry eyes = high pressure in eyes - high blood pressure. I also keep having recurring Polymyalgia Rheumatica which causes much more pain and loss of sleep. I don,t know either what some of the other conditions mentioned are. Using just initials for conditions are only meaningful to the people who have them
complex post traumatic stress disorder
carpel tunnel(both hands operated on)
IBS(irritable bowel syndrome)
generalised osteoarthritis
fatigue
head to toe pain(especially in my feet and muscles)
lack of apetite(use athletes nutritional supplements to boost calorie intake)

Gentle hugs love jessielou xxxxxxx
Fibro, agoraphobia, panic disorder, anxiety and depression, arthritis, chronic IBS, lichen ruber planus, insomnia, I have multiple fibroids and adhesions which cause no end of problems when the IBS flares up, cant even pee and the pain is chronic. I`m finally getting PROPER help for my physciatric problems and am being listened to, although I had a breakdown due to trauma some years ago I took the pills and carried on. I suffered a physcotic break, full blown nervous and mental breakdown in january, (just need to mention that I`m not dangerous, I`ve suffered severe traumas including violence and abuse throughout my life and was very badly let down in December. the only way I can describe what has happened to me is thats its like a big bag filled with all the bad things over the years, no more could fit in and the thing exploded and now I have to finally deal with all of it in order to move on and live MY life as best I can ) I`m fighting to get the physical help I need , but am not strong enough physically and emotionally to deal with all that just now. Thank god for my family who have stuck by me and support me, people like me need help support and understanding , not judging, I`m learning to say its not my fault and its difficult! Please forgive me for writing so much, I hope I didnt upset anyone xxx
Hi Clare, no not in the leest bit too much my love. Understand depression and what it does to us, morbid fear, morbit sleeplessness, morbid bl--dy eveything. what did the turtle do when she got to the end of her rope? Tied a knot and hung on. Not very useful, sorry. I burst into overwhelming tears at my dr's quite unintensionally I must say and he immediately refered me to our Mental Health Unit. I am bi-polar, have arthritis and IBS, but oh golly you are in need of a big gentle hug. Imagine I am sending you one via my P.C. I hate being this ill. Go thump a tree, love. Trees don't mind, tough things trees. And it may help to talk to it too. I talk incessantly to my silver birch and she is very nice about it!
as well as fibro I have postural hypotension, hypermobility dislocating knee caps as well as now being tested for MS and Lupus
As well as fibro I have lots of other illness that come with fibro also tennis elbow but 1 dr says its fibro,COPD also.

Bad memory,Asthma,Non Alcoholic Liver disease,IBS,High blood pressure,

I take 6 tablets per day without the Tramadol.
My list is very similar to yours,. I can add Diabetes, carpal tunnel (operated on years ago but to no avail!), Osteoarthritis in both knees hands and neck and general fedupness lol. The tablets I take are not strong enough to cope with the pain but because of the Liver cirrosis (transplant on the cards but not till I'm in final stage, helpful eh?). My daughter has Cerebral palsy so will be fighting for wheelchair soon!! Chin up everyone xxx

Big gentle hugs to everyone. it is nice to find a place where i can share as i have no one to listen as none of family have ever had anything like this. sorry rambling lol xx
Hi this is very interesting. For anyone here with low Vit D, iron, B12 or 'IBS' do ask your GP to test you for coeliac disease. It's often missed and as it is an auto-immune disease the symptoms (tiredness and stomach problems, weight loss or gain) can be dismissed as just stress. Often people have been told they have CFS then coeliac has been diagnosed and they feel better on a gluten free diet.

hi, saw new gp at the practice who referred me to a rheumatologist, a few blood tests and a couple of consultations i was diagnosed with FM. I have herniated discs in my spine (years of nursing & big boobs!), 2 cardiac stents and Angina. the Rheuma doc told me that apart from being a heriditary condition, it could be due to me going undiagnosed and treated for the FM for quite a number of years.
I cope well with the pain and refuse to let it dominate my life, i tend to pace myself with long periods of rest at the weekend.
the symptom i find very difficult to cope with is Foggy brain and when im really tired i can hardly string a sentence together or finish it !!
if anyone has any ideas how i can deal with this ii would be really grateful.

ooo and i remembered i have tjm, and jaw problems too. god i have wayyy too many. if someone would like to take some id be overjoyed.
It's really weird but when I read other peoples problems, I can assosiate with tooo many but didn't think they could all be related. I had a mystery jaw problem three years ago, no-one seemed to know what it was or what to do to rememdy it. I could only bite on two teeth and my jaw had moved, the experts were talking about resetting my jaw and braces (at 55yrs!!) but mysteriously it righted itself. I also had crpal tunnel in one hand operated on sooo painful I wouldn't have it done again. I had a severe reaction to hair shampoo and looked like the elephant man, have to stick to one brand now.
Oh and my blood platelets are dropping too.... pass the gun someone lol xxxx

I am also new to this site. I use to see a specialist at Salisbury Hospital. It was there I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis in majority of my joints. It was also at this hospital I was introduced to two wonderful ladies, Sue Williams (Nurse) and Pat Hurst sufferer of Fibromyalgia. They had written a book in 2004 called " Getting to Grips with Fibromyalgia. A D.I.Y. manual" published by Amesbury Printing co Ltd. This book explains everything in plain English, it has tips and lots of helpful advice. Not sure if it is still in print I hope it is. This book has been a huge help to me and others.
recurrent depressive disorder, IBS, underactive thyroid, cluster headaches - hi I have a few conditions that run alongside the fibro... xxx
As well as arthritis I have CFS, IBS, FND and well of course fibro. I am currently in hospital for my recent diagnosis, arthritis and am getting to grip with walking with a Tri Walker. Yesterday I just had a terrible day. If I was not sleeping I was crying. But today Im far more positive and happy!

Hi, I'm have dyspraxia and raynaulds and a LOT of joint pains and problems, so a friend mentioned last week the link betwen dyspraxia and fibromyalgia, and I have now discovered there is a link between reynaulds and fibromalgia. Looking at the list of symptoms for fibro I seem to have a lot of them, including pain in many different places, restless legs, light sensitivity, random exhaustion and collapse, anxiety and propensity for depressive patches. Do you know any other people with all 3 - dyspraxia, fibro and raynaulds?.... thanks!

the question was do you have any conditions other than fibro It would only let me fill one box
has anyone had simple fall but traumatic injuries i only tripped but broke bone in back in feb 12 then april missed a step and had compartment syndrome but no one seems to know why these are happening just get pushed from one doctor to another..........
I also have pernicious anaemia. I'm being investigated for RA too.
Hi have IBS, Irriable bladder, mfd, cervical arthitic spondilosis, light, noise and smell senitivity... Vit D diff. candida
Ok, things I have apart from fibro (but some of which fall within the symptoms of fibro):
very long standing depression & anxiety
IBS (had for a long time before I started having lots of other fibro symptoms
sciatica
always had chronically tight/painful shoulders & neck
allergic rhinitis (allergic to pollen & dust amongst other things)
sinusitis
overactive bladder
always had really bad sleep patterns (doesn't matter whether I sleep for an hour or ten hours, still wake up exhausted; go through periods of insomnia)
acid reflux
Herpes simplex virus type one (the strain that gives you cold sores, but I have it thoughout my body)
problems regulating body temperature
"fibro fog" - sometimes try and say things and I just can't get the word out even if it's something really simple - or I completely lose my train of thought when I'm speaking.
Restless legs.
oh, and plantar fasciitis (basically means the tendon between the ball of your foot and your heel stretches too much and gets irritated - it means that even walking short distances can be excrutiatingly painful).
Depression
Sjogren's Syndrome
Raynauds
Vasculitis
VItamin b12 deficiency
Vitamin d deficiency
calcium deficiency
constipation
bladder problems
It is interesting to read the pattern of things that everyone has surely these dr's we see should be bale to link somewhere all these symptoms as it cannot be a coincidence that we all suffer from so many other things alongside the fibro. I have suffered with severe depression for years I was diagnosed with fibro about 26 years ago and was told i had it and to go home and deal with it. since then i have had surgery on my shoulder, gall bladder removed but still have to take meds to stop acid reflux, I have osteoarthritis in both knees, hips and hands had a knee replacement but could only get it done privately as i was seen to be too young it failed and now i don't have private they won't even consider redoing it even though it drops me down the stairs and has worked loose and my recent xrays show the arthritis has got worse. I had surgery on one hand for the arthritis which worked for about a year but is now back with a vengeance and in the other hand which means its difficult to lift things without pain, I attempted suicide years ago five times as i had had enough and my mind swings from those thoughts everytime something goes wrong and this year has to have been the worst in my life anything and everything that could go wrong has. I don't sleep at night i lie awake until about 6 then drop off then feel guilty as i am still in bed at 11. The pain is unbearable most of the time and i have got to the stage where i really have to push myself to go out of the house if i don't have to i won't i will make up excuses to myself. I thought i was going to be homeless as from today but have managed to find a nice ground floor flat to rent my only concern is any noise from above or the students that live in the area mainly because of my sleep problems and i have very acute hearing about the only thing that works well. I do try and stay positive as much as possible but there are days when your feet just get knocked out from under you and then i have anxiety and panic attacks and bad thoughts the only thing that now stops me is what it did to my children. Everyone be gentle to themselves hugs to all.
I am a insulin controlled diabetic, also have nuropathy in my legs and feet. Depression too. Oh the joys. Had to give up work ......

Looking at the list of symptoms for fibro I seem to have a lot of them, including pain in many different places, restless legs, light sensitivity, random exhaustion and collapse, anxiety and propensity for depressive patches.

Depression and Type 2 diabetes
I get ringing in my ears on and off and have suffered with restless legs from a child.
No I have not been assessed for Dyspraxia, I will mention this to my GP, she is very good and helps me with all that she can with referrals ext: We are trying to distinguish as to whether I could have Thyroid problems, getting no where with the blood tests, she is very persistent though. This fibro though does get me down.
I have IBS, polycyctic ovaries, clinical depression, anxiety: ptsd and DID.

Hi, I have dyspraxia and raynaulds. Also a LOT of joint pains and problems, so a friend mentioned last week the link betwen dyspraxia and fibromyalgia, and I have now discovered there is a link between reynaulds and fibromalgia. Looking at the list of symptoms for fibro I seem to have a lot of them, including pain in many different places, restless legs, light sensitivity, random exhaustion and collapse, anxiety and propensity for depressive patches. Do you know any other people with all 3 - dyspraxia, fibro and raynaulds?.... Also has anyone heard of good results for the joint pains from using anu supplement (such as fish oils or chondroitin - although I suppose if fibro is a function of nervous system and pain signals rather than actually joint damage theseight not be effective???)? Any experiences on this? Thanks!!!
