Guest guest Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 Welcome le!! Yes I have terrible pain . My feet and my arms from my elbows down to my finger tips feel like I have been scolded. My face from under my eyes to my chin feels like I am wearing a mask of live wires. Originally I was treated for lupus. And I said the same thing "What? Your making this up!!" Relax you are not imagining it and its real. So don't stress over it. Take a deep breath and relax. You have to remember , at least you now know what is wrong! God Bless you and yours God Bless America Love ya, Gail -- I'm new 1. While it is wonderful to share our experiences with everyone on the list as to what treatments do and don't work for us, pls always check with your dr. Some treatments are dangerous when given along with other meds as well as to certain health conditions or just dangerous in general.2. If you are in a difficult situation (doesn't matter what it is) pls don't be afraid to ask for help. It is the first step to trying to make that situation better.3. To unsubscribe the e-mail is: Fibromyalgia_Support_Group-unsubscribe 4. Also, it is not uncommon for more than one member to be feeling bad at the same time when it comes to flares and b/c of that potentially take something another member says the wrong way. And that includes the things that one member may find funny (even if it's laughing at fibro itself) even though we who deal with illness whether one such as fibro or multiple illnesses try to keep a sense of humor.5. Pls let's be gentle with each other, and if you are having a bad day pls let us know so that we can do our best to offer our support.Have a nice day everyone.

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 Hi le, I'm new here, too and newly diagnosed, too. Welcome, Sandy I'm new Hi all, my name is le I am new to the group. I was diagnosed with fibro about 2 weeks ago. I am having a hard time with the diagnosis which I'm sure everyone probably does. I just wanted some concrete evidence of what is going on with me. I have real bad hand and feet pain, sholder blade pain and hip and knee pain. Does anyone else have feet pain where they can barely walk. I really thought I had RA but all my labs are normal and the Dr said it would have presented itself by know (I've been going to the Rhematologist for 2 1/2 years). I guess it doesn't really matter what I have, right? I just have a lot of pain and I can not get comfortable enough to sleep. Anyway, just wanted to introduce myself and let you all know that I feel for you all! Am so glad I have found this site! Thanks for listening! le Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 HI le and welcome, Yes, we all had the same problem and I am still going through it. The denial takes a while to get over. I think it is a control thing. Like we want to control our lives and this is something we can't control. Welcome. is > > Hi all, my name is le I am new to the group.
