What to expect?

Hi everyone :)

So I’m not officially ‘diagnosed’ as my doctor wanted to refer me first, but finally have my first appointment with a rheumatologist next month!

Can anyone maybe advise me on what I can expect to happen or next steps I should expect?

Thanks in advance :)

Hi Rosebud. I saw a rheumatologist a while back and they basically went through some questions of what was going on and then did some tests on movement and strength. They then wrote back to my doctor saying they agree that it is FM. I have since been referred back to them though so who knows what is going on! I hope it goes well for you. 😊
