I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia last year but now I'm starting to show more symptoms similar to Multiple Sclerosis. My mother and her sister both live with MS. I am seeing a doctor to rule out other things but it is possible I will be having an MRI, though I don't know if I'd have scarring yet even if I did have MS. I was just hoping to discuss symptoms with someone who lives with both.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Thank you @A MyFibroTeam Member :) I can't figure out a way to message you directly.

Thanks for the information @A MyFibroTeam Member I don't drink soft drink at all, only water and I stick to a wholefood vegan diet. Unfortunately it's not an easy a fix as diet. :(

I've just had a multitude of blood-tests done to rule out other illnesses and vitamin deficiencies etc but all came back clear. I will be booking an MRI tomorrow.

Do you consume soft drinks? People who do, can have similar symptoms to MS. Even diagnosed with MS, but once they cut out aspartame (fake sugar) their symptoms completely disappeared.... worth looking at diet.

Thank you Debbie. I know people with lupus,MS & fibro. From talking with them & my own research the symptoms are very much alike to me.
