I desperatly want to converse with someone with Fibro. I have symptoms, of pain, hand numbness, confusion, and much more. I want to know if this is from the Fibromyalgia, or do I have something else? I have been on medication for depression forpast several years. It helps, but I am tired of taking so many drugs. I also have Asthma, oasteoarthitis, carpel tunel of both hands, I refued to have surgery, I wear braces on hands every night. The pain goes up to my shoulder and into my nech terribly, is this carpel tunel or Fibromyalgia?? I also experience chest discomfort at times I do not know if I am having a heart attack or is it the Fibro?? Can not sleep well at night, is this Fibro.? Please converse with me about this syndrom. I was diagnosed in 1997. Two weeks after the Fibro diagnosis, I was in an auto accident, I was rearended, but a women going about 60 miles an hour, all traffic was stopped on highway, she could not stop on time and hit me. It was a bad scene, no one knows how I got out of this alive.I have not been able to work since. I am now "diabled" at age 55. I can not work for anymore than 1 or2 hours at a time. Due to pain, forgetfulness etc. Would like to hear and talk to someone with same problem. Thank you for your time and concern in this matter. lmurgo@aol.com
