What's really frustrating is the inability of my docs to come up with a real diagnosis and effective treatment.
After ruling everything out, all they're left with is that they don't have a fucking clue.
Has fibromyalgia been ruled out? Because generally when everything else is ruled out, fibro is the answer
I only have pain in three quadrants, so fibromyalgia is not indicated. But - it seems progressive and I'm starting to get paresthesia in my left fingertips and then left upper quadrant is rhe only one so far uninvolved.
It's somewhat complicated as the symptoms in the uppee quadrants are possibly a result of a different condition I was diagnosed with 13 years ago (thoracic outlet syndrome). But that has norhing to do with the symptoms in the lower quadrants.
So I don't know and neither do they apparently.
