I just viewed my blood test results online
All of my blood work came back as negative for the arthritis. Great, but now we'll have to figure out why I'm in pain. Fibromyalgia?
I'll get some more answers on Friday, I hope! Today I was hurting pretty good, so I'm ready to get going on some pain management.
Re: I just viewed my blood test results online
I will! Thanks so much
I know we'll figure this out. It's just one more thing I can scratch off our list.
I am glad to hear it's not arthritis, that is almost impossible to cure or reverse and can be so painful! I truly hope they can figure out what it is and that you can find the right pain management that works for you, I hate to hear that you are still hurting.
Hope the next news you get has more answers and relief!
This! Good luck!
I will be praying that you will find the answers before they give you a bucket-term diagnosis like fibromyalgia. (Sorry but that is what they consider that condition to be when some doctors can not figure out overall pain. It really does exist but may be over- diagnosed)
Just a suggestion but try an elimination diet. It make be something you are allergic to which is causing the pain.

Good luck love!
I'm sorry you're not feeling well, Otter.
I was going to suggest what Jade mentioned also if all of your tests come back negative. One of the main symptoms of my food allergies/intolerances/sensitivities is joint and muscle pain. My whole body just hurts like the flu if I catch a trace of an allergen.
It may not be this, but it might be worth a shot to try it out and see if it helps or rule it out. I always suggest it to people because when I was sick I had no idea it could be food and my symptoms were random and all over the place.
Good luck and I hope you get some answers soon!
Yay, it's not RA- boo, you don't know what it is
knowing what it's not is one step closer to knowin what it is
ugh how fustrating, have you looked into MS? I hope you find answers soon
