      Sorry to hear that you also have to deal with being misdiagnosed. I was misdiagnosed several times in my life... it is hard to deal with the feelings surrounding my misdiagnosis sometimes. But in time I am dealing better with the aftermath as I keep working at my therapy. HUGS to you.

    • Close Pulmonary Fibrosis

      I was just diagnosed with interstitial pulmonary fibrosis, and I'm only 46. I'm scared and need folks to talk to.

    • Close COPD & Emphysema

      I was diagnosed with COPD (emphysema) 11 months ago.

      Treatments

      Albuterol Working / Worked
      Only use on occasions when my asthma flares up.
      Duoneb Working / Worked
      I already had a nebulizer with Albuteral, and after getting severe bronchitis last September, they gave me Duoneb which really helps much better than just Albuterol.
    • Open Fibromyalgia

      I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia about four years ago.

      Treatments

      Aqua Therapy Working / Worked
      It does help to be in a therapy pool, althought I cannot afford it.
      Cymbalta Working / Worked
      Doesn't work at all for my fibromyalgia pain, but does work for my depression.
      Heat Working / Worked
      Works temporarily.
      Lyrica Not Working
      didn't do diddly squat
