Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Hi Angie, next time you see your Doc. see if they can check for the tender points of Fibro to see if that is what it is. I have both, and they seem to go together many times. Hope you get to feeling better. Jeanette French Re: Strange symptom Yes, I have had this ever since I developed CFS. It is exactly as you describe. If feels like the area is bruised. Angie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 No I dont think they have checked for that. Is that a symptom of Lupus? DCole wrote: Yes, I get this too. Have you been checked for lupus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Yes I have been diagnosed with Fibro about 4 years ago. THis sympton is very different from the normal aches and pain. My normal pain feels deep and this other feeling sorta feels like on the skin (like a bruise) but it a large area its Kinda hard to explain Jeanette French wrote: Hi , this kinda sounds like Fibro, have you been diagnosed with that, or just the CFS? hope you feel better...

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Yes- sounds like FM to me too. That's the same description my little guy says when he tries to tell me about his " ouches.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Yes I am taking medications, and have been for over 1 year now. The Dr just changed the medications and if there is no change after 2 months she said she will send me to a specialist As for my Liver I dont know, They have tested me for hep. and thats all I am aware of, I do experience severe pain at times on my right side but they always dismiss it because they said everything on that side has been removed and the liver does not cause pain? I dont know ~ Also they said that the pain is actually on my right side from pacreatitus (sp?) but I feel it on the left. Jeanette French wrote: Hi , Is he treating you for the high chol and trig. ? Is there any meds you are taking that could be causing the brusing, also have your liver checked out.....hope you find the cause, and get feeling better...

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Hi , Is he a specialist? Maybe you should be going to an internal Med Doc, more in his field to find out what is going on inside. I have left side pain, but it is in the muscles, and connective tissue etc.. Testing for Hep., I guess would show any liver problems, though there are a couple liver enzyne. I know we jave Belirubin, not spelled right, and then any blood work as the liver cleans the blood too, as well as supply bile to the stomach. HHmmm...I think a specialist would be better. Take care, good luck... Jeanette French Re: Strange symptom Yes I am taking medications, and have been for over 1 year now.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Why the heck would your doc say NO? Maybe you should find one who will say yes. --- lisa Orr wrote: > It hurts my lower back and also my thighs > > I think I eat healthy, I have asked for a referal > to see a dietician but the Dr said no.
