akeyoftimeWe have name! It's official!
It's a relief. I've been suffering from fatigue for months now, longer than I ought to be from the stroke, but now my rheumetologist seems to know why. I was in there today, for a regular appointment and she went through the usually prodding of my joints, and some spots were way more tender than usual. (She had me jumping in pain.) It's been getting steadily worse with each visit.
:P I have been diagnosed with Fibromialgia (I'll get back to this with the proper spelling later, though I know I'm not totally off.) I know a few people with it as is, so we can all be tired and in pain together. :)
On the plus side, no more sleep study! Meaning I won't have to spend the night in a strange room with lots of strange snoring people hooked up to strange machines...
On another note, I know I'm doing a poor job of keeping all these re-counting of the past year in order, and I'm really sorry. Organization has never been a big skill with me. If it helps, this is breaking news, and *not* part of the old stuff I've written about.
