Hi everyone I went to the Dr today because fed up with all this getting worse.....told Dr it can't always be down to Fibro as I can't do anything now....but it is different to fibro,at least you get a flare and eventually feel a bit better and able to live some sort of life.

Hooray!!! he listened and checked me out and has decided that the pain I had in my head 14 months ago could have been a bleed, so got to have a brain scan. If that comes back OK he will then get me seen by a Neuroligst ( Sorry spelling not good ) all sounds pretty scary but to be honest I just need to know. He actually realised that I was worse since he saw me at home last week!

He has also upped my Amitriptyline to relax my muscles a bit more as I have arms that look like I work out....but they never switch off, and they ache x

Just thought I would keep you all up to date.

Hope every one is staying safe in this blistering heat, :-)

Rainbow hugs ((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((( :-) )))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
