Sorry to hear of your difficulties.
Are you under the care of a rheumatologist?
You should be with the signs and symptoms you describe.
You should not be suffering like this, I would suggest you make an apt to see your GP, to get the ball rolling.
Let us know if you need any more info.
Best wishes

I have an appointment for next thursday morning so will be interesting as the doctor will have a student in with him.
So will see what they have to say might actually get somewhere this time.

Persevere, ask your Dr to do the tests and to refer you to Rheumatology who will also be able to manage your Fibromyalgia.
