I've originally posted this on the diet board, it was suggested that I also post it here...

Well, not too much to report. I told her about the pain & she didn't seemed to concerned. I metioned arthuritis, she said, "at the age of 29?" I've heard of crazier things, & I've seen people younger than me with it too. I mentioned Fibromyalgia, & she said that has to do with the muscles. She gave me a prescription for a muscle relaxer & I will have to get some blood work done. She said we'll see where that takes us & she may send me to a rheumatologist. So, I'll go Sat. for the blood work & I have another appt on April 21st. Thankfully I have the same muscle relaxer from the car accident at home, so, if need be I can use that instead of filling another prescription. But I don't get it, if she said that fibro has to do with the mucsle, & my pain seems to be in the joints, why give me a prescrption for a muscle relaxer????
I woke up this morning & my hands were stiff-like. I wonder if I'm not missing something in my diet. I take a multivitamin, & a calcium supplement. Any ideas?
