All the test results are in. I don't have... RA, OA, Lupus, and the Rhummy doesn't think it's fibro. Now What. This has been a terible blow to me. I'm sick. Why can't  they find out what's making me sick. Every DR, and there have been tons of them, Think it's something different. And most conclusions end with, Well pain management is the only option left. Freinds, family, even my husband don't want me to give up, But I don't know how much more I can take. Maybe if I go to pain management they can find a diagnosses after they determine the best treatment for me to get through whatever this is.

I just need some advice from the people who have been there. No one else, no matter how understanding, has been through what I'm facing. You have. How do you deal with it. Tami
