Default It is REAL!

For almost a year I was in constant pain and the doctors here where I live didn't know what to do with me. So, I was sent to one of the most prestigious hospitals close to me for a diagnosis. I was told it was psychosomatic. HA! I was wheelchair bound! Two months later I went back to that same state, a few miles away to another hospital where neurologists proded and did their thing. One doc pushed all these particular places on my body and I was screaming in pain. But, when he would push right next to it, it would not hurt. He said to me, "Liz, you have fibromyalgia. Why has no one figured this out?" So, a waste basket disease, or garbage pail disorder, or psychosomatic illness....it is real...it hurts...there is medication to help ease the pain and depression from the pain! Good luck to you and find the right doctor who helps....not destructs!
