What's going on?

Has your doc ever checked you for hypothyroid? I hope so. Usually that is one of the first things they check for for fatigue. He may not have because u are younger. I am also uming he has checked you for autoimmune diseases as well. Fibro symptoms are very similar to Lupus, RA, and other autoimmune diseases. I would see a rhematologist if you havent already. Alot of docs diagnose fibro when they dont really know whats going on because they either did not look or there are no other signs. In the medical field fibro is a bad label to have because there is no proof that you actually have it. Many people push for or fake the diagnosis just to get pain meds. Which is terrible for those who really are suffering! I would definately ask for a referal to a rhematologist, thyroid labs, ANA lab test, and immflamatory markers. Feel free to contact me with more questions. I have alot of personal and professional experience with what ur going through! Good Luck!
