Q: Doctor for Fibro ?

I am 56 yr old female held together by pins and needles. Years ago I had disc replacement surgery in neck and now have degeneration. Have suffered over 20 years with various joint pain, popping sound in hips. I have pain in both hips, can't sleep on either side. Dr said I had burisits. The illium is painful to touch most days. When I get up from sitting for a while the top of each hip (illium) is so stiff and painful that I have to shuffle humped over for a few minutes in order to walk. Just had debris moved out of my left shoulder, MRI shows small disc protrusion in lower back. I have been treated by Ortho and pain clinic. Now given diagnosis of Fibro.

Sounds like we have alot in common, what has helped me is heat, ice and stretching, Also I bought the book Trigger Point Therapy and it has helped me alot to control my pain.
