Louisiana1976's Journal

It is frustrating, but also explains a lot so it's something of a relief. I've been diagnosed with fibromyalgia as well as arthritis. Because last spring I started having on and off pain in my right knee. This got worse and also spread to the left knee and then I started having aches and pains all over--back, shoulders, thighs, calves, etc. So yesterday I saw a rheumatologist who examined me and that's what she found out. To relieve the fibro I hope to switch from Lexapro to Cymbalta--which aside from being an anti-depressant is also good for fibro--so I'll be killing 2 birds with one stone.
