Stomach Cramps
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

Ok, for several years I have been having "charley horse" cramps on the upper left side of my stomach. I asked my dr and he just shook his head and said he didn't know what it was. These are very very annoying and would like an answer. Anyone else have this?

Fibro And/or MS?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

I was diagnosed with the fibro in May, although symptoms started much sooner. I feel pretty confident about this diagnosis, but here lately, I've been experiencing other symptoms. Has anyone ever been to a neurologist to rule out things like CFS or MS? I'm considering requesting a referral.

Yes. A neurologist was my first step in diagnosing fibro. He had to rule out lupus and MS, among other things. I HIGHLY recommend going to a GOOD neurologist

Very disturbing. I took one 15 mg last night and I was awake and angry all night long. I am not taking this. Too bad for anyone that owns stock in this drug company. These for the majority are horrifying side effects.
