Going to the doctors to try and get a proper diagnoses to see exactly what is wrong with me and to ask to be refered to a rhumatologist. Sorry about the spelling haven't worked out how to check it as I've just got a Mac.

Well I went in and told him that I wanted a definite diagnosis that I had fibro. I said I wanted to see a rhuematologist to confirm it so that I could get my head around it. I also told him I am still waiting for an appointment with the psychiatrist as he had written saying I was an urgent case over ten days ago.

He said as far as he is concerned it is fibro and there is not a lot the rhuematologist can do.

Apparently my depression and all the stress I am under at the moment isn't helping either.

It was hard explaining things because for some reason my brain seems to be working faster than my mouth and things come out a bit jumbled (very embarrassing). I came away with some diazepam as he hopes it will help to calm me down when I get too stressed out.

So the outcome is I am waiting for my appointments now.

Oh happy days!!

I'm now all chilled out lol
