Hi Jen, I don't remember if you have been dx with anything, so please forgive me. ( it's hard enough to remember what day it is ) But all the pains that you described, and how you described them, they all sound like you have Fibro. Have you ever been checked for it? Either way, it will be a Rheumy that would dx Fibro also. The main meds that I remember for fibro, most were to help you sleep, an antidepressant, and they would try pain meds, but only to a certain extent. I don't know if this has helped you, but I don't have any other ideas. Just keep telling your Rheumy that you cannot take the level of pain, don't mention any labels, and tell her that you can't keep going on like this without help of some kind. (((hugs)):wink2:
