Before I forget, does anyone else take a Magnesium complex supplement? I read that Fibromites are usually low in Magnesium, Manganese and Malic Acid, all of which are used for muscles to get energy! I take a great supplement (which I';ve run out of, darn it ) that has all of them in and the lady at the HFS said other Fibromites had had success with it.
Ruchie - watch you don't OD on vitamin C! It is possible and you are taking ALOT! I only take 500mg a day!
I'm in a flare right now. Me thinks coming off my Celexa was a bad idea as I've been flaring ever since. Could be a coincidence as I had a chest infection and now another virus, but I'm back on the happy pills! At least I proved to myself that I can make it through the withdrawal.
Wish we could all meet up! That would be so cool. I must get organised for my meeting...hopefully people will turn up this time! I'm going to put notices in the doctors, HFS, hospital, etc and in the local paper.
I'm seeing my GP on Monday and am hoping to get a referral to a pain consultant or a rheumy. Si's discovered a couple of names with our insurance company so now I have a name to suggest. Really, my doc is hopeless. She could have referred me to SOMEONE. Surely it's no more difficult for her to find a specialist than it is for me?! Maybe I'll change docs. It was a nice change to find someone who knew something about Fibro, but she ain't great. Anyway, anyone had any luck finding a physiatrist?
