Re: Fibromyalgia after GBS???

[Guest guest]

Hi Tracey,

I was diagnosed having fibromyalgia back in 1999. There were times

that I suffered badly. A couple years ago I went on a huge diet

(AGAIN) and lost 83 pounds and ever since I have not had MUCH trouble

with my fibromyalgia even though I gained ALL that weight back plus 5

pounds. I had my RNY in July of this year and have lost 75 pounds, and

so far I feel GREAT. I am still having trouble with my left foot that

people said would get better when I lost weight (actually it's gotten

worse). If you have not been diagnosed as having fibromyalgia, I would

make an appointment to see a rheumatologist, it may be that you have

something else going on, maybe even RA, which my Mom had that really

bad and she was NEVER over weight.

I hope things will get better for you, but please see a speacilist if

you are having too much pain, pain is a sign of something wrong and no

one should suffer.
