Hey all

I am new to this forum. I have previously been posting on the lupus forum as i havent had a diagnosis of anything yet. All i know is i have had a positive ana titer three times but nothing more specific has shown up in my blood.

Fibromyalgia has been mentioned a few times but to be honest I have NO idea what is wrong with me. One minute I was holidaying in India last year and then since the beginning of this year I have been on constant pain, muscle aches, unable to walk up stairs or hills, pains in fingers, feet, knees, and i constantly feel nauseous :(

To say it has taken over my year would be an understatement.

But I have just come on here to do a bit of research really and whatever is wrong with me, I am sure I will find some helpful coping tips.

Feel free to say hellooooo

Bye for now :)

Hi Im fairly new to this site myself however i have been diagnosed with Fibro as well as other things but it is so frustrating not having and answer, not that you ever want something you just want a name so you can start to deal with it. Only tip i can give just keep going back to the doctors and don't settle for a i don't know attitude from a doctor. You know your body, but your doing the best thing by researching but it can't be a bad thing so don't do to much it's a fine balance.

I do hope you get answers soon honey or if their are miracles out their you get back to full health xxxx
