Cinusti,
Can I relate to your story!
My doctors insisted that I had fibromyalgia and treated me with all kinds of muscle relaxants, narcotics, and antidepressants. At one point, when I was having breathing problems, the ER treated me for a heart attack! (with nitroglycerin and Ativan) even after I told them what was wrong with me. I gave each medication one week to improve my symptoms and then threw it away. I wouldn't take the narcotics at all. It was bad enough to be weak, let alone asleep.
I hope you get the diagnosis and medication you REALLY need now. I was just diagnosed on Tuesday, but I knew what was wrong with me for 13 months. I just couldn't get any doctor to listen. I had to travel 3 hours to a doctor that is supposed to be one of the best around. He certainly is to me! Anyway, good luck to you and keep us posted on your progress!
Kathy
