I've been going crazy with these symptoms. I've had so many tests done it's so frusterating especially when they look at me like well everything has come back normal? It's been going on for a long time now almost a year but recently it's been getting a lot worse. It started by bouts of what I thought was the flu but over and over and over and over..... Then the servere joint pains, burning feeling on my skin, horrible chest pain, diarria, headaches all the time, extreme fatigue... I'm in so much pain. It's bad when iwake up gets better then at night it seems to ache worse. It's aweful. They ruled out RA, Lupus, and have tested me for other things. It's not y thiroids either. Everything keeps commming back normal. Yes I'm glad and baffled at the same time. The doc. tried telling me it was pms and stress???????? What's stressing me out is this pain that seems to come from nowhere. Well she checked for trigger points or whatever and the places she was touching my neck, shoulders, couple places on my back, legs, hips wow it hurt but what does all this mean? She said she'll send me to a rhumatologist. If it is fibro then what? I need help. I have 3 kids 8,4,and 11\2. I can't function. I actually fell asleep on the toilet this week twice and once while I was leaning aganst the counter. Crazy!!! Anyways anyone with the same symptoms? Any advice? I'd appriciate it so so so much. Take care all - Chris

It sounds like Fibro to me....what I would have said regardless if you had guessed it or not. I don't have it but a lot of people here do. Research the trigger points of pain so you know wheather you have them or not.....I believe that is how docs dianogse it. So (((((((hugs)))))))) I have gone through the tests nothing wrong search so much majorly crazzy.....don't give up.....you are not crazzy.

I hope you find out what is wrong.

Take Care
