Post 2!!!! M.e.firbo in head!!!!what you say???not in mine!!!!!
Louise, sorry that I cannot quite make out everything you say. Correct me if I'm wrong - you saw the rheumatologist yesterday who said your spine was the worst she'd ever seen. It was badly curved in two places? Then she said you had fibromyalgia symptoms but that fibromyalgia was all in the mind?
No doctor should speak to you that way. Please change doctor's and see if you can get into a pain clinic. I believe you have suffered enough. You aren't going to get anywhere with a so called doctor who doesn't believe a word you say and it's down right insulting!!!! I pray you can find a compassionate doctor to help you sweetheart!!! xxxx Mitzi
I, too, am a little confused. Did the rheumatologist say Fibromyalgia is all in your head? From recalling your other posts, you were referred to rule out inflammatory back pain, so at least you know it's not AS. It sounds like a referral to a orthopaedic surgeon who specialises in spinal surgery might be the next step.
Hi.crashdoll..what does enlargement of s1 joint mean???and mild degree of sclerotic s1 joint??? When I try look this up..has well has spondylonthrois????please does any one knew????x
Do you mean the S1 joint as in the lower spine joint or sacroileac joint? Sclerosis in bones is an unusual increase in density and hardening of the bones. It is characterised by thickening, hardening or increase in density mainly caused by injuries that constrict bones, for instance, osteoarthritis.This seems fitting with your spine problems.
Hi crashdoll.yeh that's what it says !!!see physio sent me doctor,,they in time sent me MRI,,so ??who I'd see x
It depends what you want. Do you want surgery or do you want pain management or both?
