I suffered once with shoulder pain that eventually moved up to my neck (dominant right side). Eventually had MRI and diagnosed with Spinal Stenosis, was treated with physical therapy, ice and changed "mousing" hand to left hand when I was working. Fully tecovered.

Last year, I had significant pain in left knee. My doctor ran tests for various things and concluded Fibro. After 24 months, I couldn't stand it, I went back to her and she ordered an MRI; I had a torn meniscus. Then surgery.

A lot of times, treatable ills get bunched into Fibro and those add to our pain, needlessly. We must self-advocate and do so cgracefully,.kindly and assertively to ensure that our precious days can be just that.
