Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Michelle,

I read your post that you were having an ok day the other day. I am glad to hear that you are having some good days.

I was also reading your list of symptoms and alot of them could possibly be associated to your fibromyalgia. I only have a mild case but I know for some it can be dibilitating (sp?) I met a women who has alot of the same symptoms as you and she also has fibromyalgia. She has to use a walker and a scooter due to her swelling.

I have read that fibro can cause painful swelling in the hands, legs, feet, neck and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)swinging from constipation to diarhea, Migraine headaches, Extreme fatigue, feeling of unwell like the flu, anxiety and depression, fibro fog,and nausea.

I mention all this because I am wondering if your doctor is treating you for the fibromyalgia in anyway or even taking it into consideration. Just a thought for some possible answers to your symptoms.

I hope you get answers soon and some much needed relief.
