Hi Laura

I know how you feel as ive just been diagnosed with fibromyalgia too after a year of being told i had psoriosis arthritis.

They have done a bone scan to make sure

It is a relief and they have started me on Pregabalin and getting upto 300mg full dose already

take care

hi lee sorry to hear it took so long to get diagnosis that must have been quite scary they are testing me for rheumatoid arthritis i was releived when they said it was fibromyalgia as i expected them to say rheumatoid arthritis if i have both the arthritis they think is early signs and wont be serious thankfully but its sinking in about fibromyalgia i work as a carer so as you can imagine i was abit worried and although it wears me out im determind to carry on im not on meds yet just relying on nurofen
