Hi friends,

I just got home from the specialist appointment for fibro. Turns out I have moderate to severe fibro.... he was a sarcastic doctor. Didn't provide me with a question and answer period or noth'n. At least i have a solid diagnosis on that end. He is sending me to a rheummy in Toronto that deals with arthritis and fibro together. Should be a good doctor. Putting my two evils in a room with her~ hahaha...

take care. Sam

Oh great, just what you need when in pain. A sarcastic doctor that doesn't answer questions. Oh joy. Oh bliss.

I'm glad he at least referred you to a specialist. Which rheumy is it?

Warm hugs,
