Cinnamon...thanks for all the information. It does bring up some questions. I will have my DR test for what you mentioned. I will also try your recommendations and see what happens.
Coffeebean...I am so sorry for what you have and are going through. I think it is amazing how strong we really are when faced with crisis and don't even no it.
All...my husband tells me how strong and well I am handling the whole situation. I thanked him very much. He is a wonderful man and I am lucky to have him.
Update: Went to the rhuemy on Thursday. She believes my additional symptoms stem from fibro. She thinks what is happening is I am not using my muscles enough so that when I do use them, they tire and get weak very fast. She has put me on an additional pill, Neurotin, 300mg 3x a day (1 a day for 1 week, then 2 a day the 2nd week, and then 3 a day from there on). She told me it would take a good month or so to feel any difference with this. She wants me to come back in 3 months to see how I am doing on the additional med. She said if she needed to adjust it she would. Lets hope it helps. She is trying to reduce the amount of roxicodone I have to take during the day. I'll keep ya'll updated. Remember: we can only do what we can and it is one day at a time.
Thanks to all for your comments.
