Hello, I am new to this site,but i need to find answers, I am at my witts end. I am 32 and completly at a loss, in the past year i was diagnosed with fibromylgia, psoriactic arthritis and now chronic acute pancreatitis,I am NOT a drinker but have had three attacks within the year, I live in constant pain and all the doctors do is send me to yet another specialist who concentrates on there area of expertise, I am FED up, how many more ititis can a person get.. My gut tells me that it is probably lupus. I was 21 when I had a stroke that left me in hospital for 6 months. I have clotting problems that make it really hard for me to recover from any surgery and If there is a side affect to get from a drug I will get it... WHERE DO I GO FOR ANSWERS.. I need to find someone who will look at the bigger picture, If i was to look at the prognosis for just pancreatitis it tells me that only about 50 percent of people survive 7 years past diagnosis. I will be damned if I will leave my son a orphan before i am 40
any help is welcomed

I know what it is like being in pain when you are young - I am only 13 and suffer from RSD!
