Can fibromyalgia and arthritis flare at the same time?

admin — Sun, 02 Oct 2011 22:49:18 +0000

I have both fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis all over; the past few days, I’ve hurt all over and some of my arthritis joints are talking to me. Can they both be flaring at once? I am taking something that I can take more than once a day.

pain relief for fibromyalgia/ arthritis?

admin — Sat, 24 Sep 2011 04:52:48 +0000

Diagnosed with the above. Also carpel tunnel and tendinitis as well as joint disintegration. No medications I’ve been using seem to help well. Vicotin helps, as well as noninflammatory meds, but the the vicotin is only a short term solution to ease the current pain. I’m hoping someone who has had been through this may be able to share some advice for me. I cannon’t continue using Vicotin beyond this point to mask the problem, as I have used it well beyond the recoccomended dosage and length of time using it , and an using other peoples prescriptions for it. Any help is appreciate. I am using anti-inflamitory meds as well, but still feel really bad when I have to get up in the morning. I made an appointment with a specialist two months from now, and had a refeferral from my PC. My concern is that I may become addiccted to the pain meds before that point, as they are very potent, but I cannot tolerate the the pain. Please only answer if you have any knowlege about this, especiallaly any medical experiencce.

Fibromyalgia Support?

I have just been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia today, after two and a half months of swelling joints, pain and difficulty carrying on with my life. After seeing three specialist, four doctors and literally having a hundred negative blood test, I had to be rushed to the ER because I could not walk, or support my own weight when standing. I have been doing all kinds of research, The Doctor and the Hospital had given tons of info about it, and treatment and had referred me to a rheumatologist to confirm this, (It was thought I had Rheumatoid Arthritis, but after four negative blood tests; they believe that they have narrowed down my problem)– and what a problem it is.
I am only 19 years old, and I am scared of what what I will end up living with for the rest of my life. I am currently taking Amitriptyline before bed ( I start today) and a pain medication (Oxycodone). I know what non-medicated treatments I can do to help, I just want to know how I can deal wtih this, stress should be avoidable with this disorder, but I have a very full plate of stress, and have been living with anxiety and panic disorders for a couple of years, with no help in subsiding it.
All I want to know (From someone intellegient who knows about this disorder, or someone living with this disorder) what I should expect, how I should handle my stress/anxiety (meds do not seem to work) How to deal with the pain, the people who think your making your aches and pains up in your mind and if there are any home remedies to controlling or atleast subsiding it so I can carry on with my life. I am only 19 years old, I work 3rd shift ( which I may have to leave do to the type of job I do) at UPS, and I go to college full time. I have a worry that I will not be able to live my life, with the amount of pain I am expierencing now, I cant imagine how I am to live with this down the road.
Please lend me support, I am in need someone that can help me understand what I am about to live and deal with.

thankyou

Could it be fibromyalgia? Chronic fatigue? Rheumatoid arthritis?

admin — Thu, 28 Apr 2011 11:50:31 +0000

Alot of night sweats, night “jumps” (muscle twitching) and daytime fatigue. I get soreness and pain in my shoulder blades & in the muscles down my arms (bicep) and legs (thighs). Theres pressure up my spine to the base of my skull and causes migraines.

I get sudden bouts of nausea, and have severe brain fog/ confusion. Recurring conjunctivitis, swollen ears & dry vee-jay skin.

( The dr had me checked for thyroid, pheochromocytoma & wpw disease, standard CBC test- all negative.)

24 yr fem. Symptoms started when I was 19.
