I'm trying to figure things out since the rhumatoligist who dianosed me won't treat me since to him my case it to far outside his ability to treat and my gp is going back though everything to get me the right treatment.
But so far nothing has helped the pain only made it worse and I'm feeling rather down about it all.

@A MyFibroTeam Member on the waiting list average wait time is 6 months to a year and since I've got other medical from birth most will not touch me so waiting on the speciality clinic at a local hospital that might look at me.
What is CRPS? Chronic ? Pain syndrome ? Thanks. I just haven't seen this on here.
I was diagnosed with CRPS with Fibromyalgia and I have been to do many different doctors without any relief but my current GP has put me on some new meds that are helping so far but I just have to make sure not to take them when I have to go to work because they make me so sleepy I did physical therapy but it only made my pain worse so he up my dosage on my Lyrica and I take Mirapex for RLS Elavil to help me sleep and Norco for the pain it has been working so far but I can tell when I miss a dose because my body hurts like everything and my legs burn like I was set on fire so I make sure not to miss taking it
Go see a Pain Management Doctor.
Ok, I have been diagnosed with both. My R.A. Doctor only treats my R A. My primary Care Dr. Gives me adderal which I take a half a pill each morning and it has helped some with energy. I do t have to go to sleep u til about 7:00pm instead of an hour or three after I have woken up in the morning. So that is good. I have to see a Pain specialist to help with my extreme, Intense, unbelievable pain. God Bless you and I'm here if you ever need to talk!
