feeling constantly tired and some days aching here and

melancholly

could even by syphalis with those symptoms!

i'd advise returning to the GP for a chat rather than self-diagnosis from the internet!

If you dont get any joy from the tests your having you might want to see a rhumatologist i had the same symptoms and 10 months later i was diagnosed with fibromyalgia which is hard to dignose but can be done eventually.

Good luck

Was just about to post the same thing, I went YEARS before finally being diagnosed with fibromyalgia, for all the good that did anyway as a lot of medical people won't recognise it as an actual condition, but then apparently ME was like that a few years back (so my GP tells me) and now it is more widely recognised.

fibromyalgia is a possibility-l have it and feel very tired cant sleep-wake up a lot-and aches and pains that move-hands feet back knees-and lots of swelling in hands.

This website tells you what/where the doctor is looking for to make a Fibromyalgia diagnosis.

For those who don't understand the terminology there is a picture here. of the tender points.

Because just about everyone with Fibromyalgia is also vitamin D3 insufficient there is a school of thought that questions Is Fibromyalgia Just a Vitamin D Deficiency?

Unfortunately our health professionals are very badly informed about Vitamin d insufficiency which is why 60% of us are Vitamin D insufficient throughout the year. Just look at the latest advice from The Primary Care Question Answering Service. It is such a sick joke you don't know whether to laugh or cry.


But readers must take note of the fact that while doctors continue to prescribe Ergocalciferol they are failing to prescribe the best most effective form of Vitamin D.

While they continue to think and be informed that 800iu D2 is appropriate to treat Vitamin D insufficiency they will continue to fail their patients.
