Have you had the CPK test? Have you seen a rheumatologist (they're the inflammatory docs)? Have you had your vitamin D tested (that can cause pain)?

Annie,
Thanks a ton!
I will certainly check out those links.
I'm not sure yet where the test will be done. I'm now thinking my first appointment with him will be a discussion in his office and he may direct me to the hospital for the test (not sure tho).
Regarding the CPK, I have had that test and the results were low.
I have also had a vitamin D test and those results were also low.
I have not only seen a Rheum, I have seen 2. Along with multiple other doctors over the course of the 3 years I've become ill (I'm sure many here have similar stories). STILL trying to get down to the bottom of what's wrong with me. I've had loads of irregular tests and many that are normal resulting in confusion for MANY doctors.

I think now I have finally found a doctor that can help and won't just dump me into a fibromyalgia bucket and ignore me (I have enough irregular test to show that there's something more).
Thanks again!
