Seems a few people need to do some reading on FMS. It effects every muscle in your body, including your eye muscles.
And NO IT IS NOT A FAD OR A LOONY TUNES TO LAZY/CRAZY TO WORK TYPE who seem to have it. The diagnostic STATS are 80% female vs males. Most have Thyroid issues to. And you are a IDIOT if you let a Internist diagnosis or treat your thyroid, make sure it is scripted as Name Brand, generic has 30% less hormone and it is the STUPID FDA’s and congresses fault they allow the generics to be of LESSER quality than the name brand. Use the same hormone and strength, change 1 filler and color it different. I take 1.25 which is a light gray Name Brand, generic is a light brown. To low a dose has some nasty effect on your body.
I’ve dealt with FMS over 20+ yrs.
What ever dweeb she has for a doc doesn’t known S from Shinola. Valium is one of the few NON addictive drugs that can be used to treat FMS seems to respond better to a seizure med than a opioid or MMJ. Kick it with 2 extra strength Tylenol, pain will go down from a level 10 to a level 5. 10 mg AM 10 mg PM. FDA won’t allow more. Or she can smoke MMJ which she probably does any way, many from the
Pain community don’t seem to think MMJ is of a better benefit than the Valium is, which at least works. The only hassle is you have to have a new script every 3 months and a blood draw more 0’care Horse Manure, that has to be hand carried to the Pharmacy to turn in. All part and parcel with Dumbos stupidity. To force you into an expensive Pain Management clinic. Where you see a PA not a doc. And are treated like a street junkie. All in the FAKE OPIOID CRISIS we hear on then news. Like RUSSIA, RUSSIA, another FAKE.
Most OD’s are from heroin or Cocaine laced with Fenyatal which is very deadly even in low doses. Fenyatal is brought across the MEX border along with the heroin and cocaine, which comes out of Mexico, Iraq and Afghanistan. Once it was Laos as the main supplier. Fenyatal is 100 times more powerful than Morphine.
Say what you want about Lady Gaga, I wouldn't call her lazy. She's worked her ass off to achieve the level of success she currently enjoys. She's massively talented and ambitious and did it all on her own.
i figured she had pelvic inflammatory disease.
FMS has only 1 test, the 20 pairs of twin trigger pain points. They are like a bad deep bruise, only no skin discoloration.
FMS comes with BRAIN FOG, nerve pain, besides the muscle pain, severe fatigue. Even trigger locking fingers, toes, or spasms to calf muscles. You can get so painful even your clothes hurt to wear.
Welcome to my word of PAIN and not sleeping well, for the last 20+ yrs. And there is NO CURE. Only masking of symptoms with pain meds. DWEEB docs don’t know much about it or how to treat FMS. Usually a Rheumatologist diagnosis, not all of them are well educated on it besides what was in their text books.
You can add in heat and cold intolerance to the batch of symptoms.
You talking ignurnt hoss
I don’t know about fibromyalgia but all the tick borne crap sure as hell exists
And the herpes family viruses Epstein Barr and Gullain Barr do too
The later is primary cause of mononucleosis which I had and yes from a girl
Gullain Barr can be deadly to nearly 10% who get it
Lyme disease is caused by bacteria ticks spread called borrelia and it too can debilitate
Those illnesses are real
Dems want it recognized by ADA.
Drank too much blood?

I’m your defense what many here are claiming as “chronic Lyme disease” is indeed argued against as a real malady
It is possible that Lyme creates something that persists but most authorities on the subject do not think it’s a chronic disease if treated mostly with doxycycline
My cousin in Mississippi an avid hunter had for about six months where it ran its course but he got over it
He described tiredness and memory issues at the time
He’s very athletic for an old guy....slalom water skis at 66 and still uses a climbing stand for bow hunting
A large majority of Fibro claimants are middle-aged women with concurrent mental illness issues.
Just sayin’
Gaga also went respectable lately. Good rendition of the National Anthem, a stirring tribute to Julie Andrews.....
Gaga’s been turning, ever so slightly, to our side. I wouldn’t call her the next Ted Nugent, but... it would be cool if she went rightward.
Wait, I see strings. She’s NOT levitating!
“Fibromyalgia, chronic Lyme disease, global warming and the Easter Bunny... Things that don’t exist.”
Don’t be an idiot. Fibromyalgia and Lyme disease both have objective symptoms.
Ineptitude and extreme confidence are a bad combination.
Thought she feel off her big shoes again
Where’s the Meat Dress? :)
Sounds like she’s doc-shopping for pain meds.
If it was good enough for Elvis, Michael Jackson, Prince, etc., it’s good enough for her.
They might have eaten that one. This appears to be an “after dinner” moment....
I don't know where you got the idea that Lyme is one of those scam illnesses, but a woman with whom I worked for a lot of years got it and it became incapacitating. I would not wish her misery on anyone!
