I bought hubby along to help me remember stuff and even he is confused, he thinks doc wants the therapy for that? could that cause TOS like problems? The Doc acted like it was all "likely" to fibromyalgia, but I never had the bad stuff in my arms till Nov, hurts to brush hair, read a paperback in bed, etc. He is rather abrupt but is trying to deal with a lot of different problems with me at once, he said "I think you are highly sensative to medicines"....Ha Ha I tried to tell him that on day one....Anyway I will look at all the sites and see what I can do for myself. I have not had any severe injury, have noticed the tingling pain in neck when sitting for a while. What may have caused the bad flare? And what does sx mean?

I had to diagnose my POTS: http://www.potsplace.com/ problem myself, (Before a Dr. did) and now I think i Have dry eye too. It just gets more and more fun! I'm tired of having weird unusual problems! Why not something say like a quickly dx and treated thing! Well thank you both again.
I agree with Jo and Donna- be careful with the PT. My PCP sent me for PT (before I had been diagnosed with TOS and other problems) and it made me MUCH WORSE! The therapist was probably very good and didn't know what all was wrong with me but I still couldn't continue with the full amount of visits that I'd been referred for. He nearly KILLED me- I would come home from there in so much pain I'd have to take Vicodin and soak in a hot bath. Before you agree to PT, I'd want to make sure that the therapist knew what all they were dealing with as far as your symptoms go.
