Before you (and your wonderful posts), and before having these symptoms that make me feel like just a lump.........I was, I suppose, like most people. They hear the words fibromyalgia and CFS and don't think much of them, that they must be in people's heads or they are minor complaints...........mountains out of mole hills you might say. If Fibro/CFS patients could give the rest of the population these for just one day they'd change their tune!!!

The headache/dizziness, like I said, is driving me nuts.....If I move to quickly the dizziness is much worse. The headache is just always there. It goes down into the jaw and feels like I've been clenching yet I haven't. No OTC will touch it. (Funny thing is, reg tea with caffeine is the only thing that helps, but that sparks IBS cramps.) I don't have carpal but do have TTS, Tarsal tunnel syndrome, and have had that a few years now, but it hasn't been kicking up until recently. Then you mentioned the restless legs...........OMG, RLS..........horizontal kickboxing at it's best. Funny thing is the common meds for IBS, Bentyl and Donatol make it worse for me. As one pharmascist explained.......it may affect the smooth muscles but can either excite or calm the central nervous system.......with me, obviously it excites it. Sleep I'm ok with except up a million times a night, and never ready to automatically go back to sleep. Oh, I could go on and on, but won't take you from other patients, Dr. JenX. Since IBS goes along with this, it makes me think we need another board for just related conditions. After all this board is for fun...isn't it?

Oh yes, about my one last question. How, briefly does Fibro differ from CFS?

Thank you again.............what a wealth of information on the subject you are...........you know, you really should have been a doctor specializing in these areas.
