Welcome to our group mfig! I can really relate with you to the tee! I was diagnosed with FMS in 1995. I have 7 bulged and/or herniated cervical vertebrae (all of them.) I have degenerative disc disease and 3 herniations and bulges in my lower back. I have migraines (alot from the neck problems,) and terrible insomnia. As a matter of fact, I'm mad right now because I didn't go to bed until 3:00 A.M. and it's only 6:30 and I'm already wide awake (but tired.) You know what I mean, I'm sure. You're sure in the right place. I can definately relate to going to every doctor in the book and still not finding the right one, but I finally (after YEARS) found one that's tolerable and will at least help ease some of the pain a bit, although I still feel like his lab experiment rather than his patient. It's so hard to find a good Dr. I found a specialty surgeon for my husband's Acromegaly Pituitary Gland Tumor ONLINE just by arduous searching and not giving up. If you enter into google your state, doctor and the conditions most bothering you it will give you a start on some leads. You wont pop up with one right away, and you'll probably have to do some more pain in the butt searching, but at least I think you'll get some names. If I find anything I will post it hear or PM you with the info. In the meantime a big (((((((((((hug))))))))))) and welcome from me. You are amongst friends. It was very helpful to me when I first joined, and even now when I'm feeling scared and alone, to go through old posts and those that are permanent on the board and just start reading and reading. Sometimes even a topic you wouldn't think would interest you might have some invaluable information. You can never have too much knowledge with this disease and I can't emphasize enough that you're in the right place! Great your here and look forward to your future posts whether questions, just venting to talk, frustrations, or just in need of a friend. Come on in and let it all out. We're here for you!

COMMITMENT: "True commitment begins when we reach the point of not knowing how we can possibly go on, and decide to do it anyway."
The gray ribbon is to honor my husband's fight with a brain tumor and his ongoing courage to keep his hope and faith so brilliant! |
