I am 37 years old and was diagnosed with fibromyalgia about 11 years ago. My doctor at that time in another city thought I might have MS but I moved before getting in to see a neurologist and my doctor here didn't think it was necessary. Since that time I have been having more and more syptoms like bladder problems, severe pelvic pain that comes and goes, burning hands, episodes of hot spine, dizzy spells, electric shock like pain runing up my arms, tremors almost constantly, migraines all the time, extreme exhaustion yet inability to sleep and severe muscle spasms throughout my whole body. I have also just recently started to mix up my words and slurr my speach occassionally.
Since I have started having the electric shock like pain, my doctor is sending for a consult with a neuologist after my chronic pain physician suggested it.
I feel like a hypocondriac/nut job most days. I used to be a very active person and I am unable to do most things that I did before. I am just so sick of being sick and tired! I am wondering if all my symptoms are just related to the fibromyalgia, muscle tightness and spasms? Some of my symptoms sound like MS but is the chronic muscle & jaw pain?
Frustrated after 11 years of wondering!
