Default A second Rheumatologist.

Thanks Mere,

I had a consultation with another Rhematologist last week who has a special interest in Fibromyalgia. He seemed caring and said my case was very complex but believes that I probably do have FMS.

He increased my dose of Lyrica at night and wants to increase my morning dose in one month when he sees me next. He is also a great believer in the mind/body connection and will probably try to steer me towards doing some meditation.

This guy is some distance away but probably well worth the travelling. I guess I'll know more how I find him after my second visit. Second visits with a new doctor are always the clincher for me for some reason - they either go well or go terribly!!
