I was diagnosed with FM and CFS about 10 months ago after years of unexplained pain and fatigue. I am still in search of a doctor that can help me manage my symptoms. My GP is trying to help me but she is playing a guessing game and suggested I find someone else. She suggested to try 3 different specialists, 2 of which aren't accepting new patients and the other one who told me to see a psychologist. I haven't been able to work since last august and I am also really struggling with depression and am starting to feel hopeless. I have no support system and there are no support groups in my area.View Thread

I share in your frustration. I too have been through many doctors, medications, withdrawals from the many meds, side effects of drugs, suicidal hospitalizations, and medical personal who drop you in the middle of crisis with no help or direction. I currently am on medicaid and am desperately searching for a doctor in my insurance who can help me who is not an idiot. Good luck to you and please try to find the positive in your life each day, even if it is something really small (like getting out of bed for 15 mins. @ a time).View Thread
