New here - can't figure out what is going on

[Guest guest]

I am new here; I am having a hard time sorting out what the heck is going on

wtih me.

Neurologists have diagnosed me with multiple sclerosis and prescribed Avonex -

which I

opted not to take, because of side effects.

A rheumatologist diagnosed me with lupus, becasue of high ANA (1:320),

Anti-smith & Anti-

SSA antibodies & joint pain, rash etc.

Another rheumatologist diagnosed me wtih fibromyalgia, and my internist

diagnosed me with

lupus & chronic fatigue syndrome.

Is it possible to have all of these at once???? I saw the fibromyalgia and

chronic fatigue

syndrome when I saw my med records - they never even told me about these. Is it

possible I

have these and not lupus & MS?

I am taking plaquenil, which has helped with joint pain, but am still

struggling.

Any information is welcome. It is very confusing with so many diagnoses, and

doctors not

explaining a damn t hing!
