several diagnosis....

[tonyad]

I am sure this has been asked before, But I would like to know how many of us
have other dx'd  health issues other than fibro / CFS? I am wondering how much all of us overlap
with dx'd chronic health issues...

I will go first;
Fibro, CFS, gastro- paresis, IBS,
Hypotension, probable MS (whatever that means)
and just recently IST w/bouts of syncope, And lastly
Sarcoidosis

I agree with what you said.  It's no wonder my doctor decided that FM is the correct diagnosis.

[igarfy]

Hi, I think all of these complaints are all aspects of fibromyalgia.

[FurballsMom]

mild scoliosis, sciatica, idiopathic neuropathy, GERD, GAD, PTSD, depression, IBS-C, FM, bursitis, back issues, TMJ dysfunction, chronic migraines, other headaches, PVC's, HBP, etcetera...

Fibro 9yrs
IBS
Osteo
TMJ

Hopefully that will be the end of DX's for me! and Im only 41!

I have been diagnosed with both CFS and FM. I think it's rather odd since all the sypmtoms of CFS also fall under FM. But, my fatigue can get so severe that the docs also list me under CFS.

I am one of the very few with FM that does NOT have IBS. Thank God!  But, I do have EVERY other sypmtom of FM.

I have FM (pain,pain, and more pain!)
CFS
Minor Scoliosis,
bulging disks in my back,
torn ligament in/around  my spine,
arthritis in spine,
Acid reflux (terrible),
RLS,
hypertension,
heart palpatations,
general anxiety(which has been developing after the bombardment of all these syptoms!)
Headaches

  Yes, I certainly see that IBS is linked to all of us that has
responded. I too have fibroids......  :(
How many of us have either FMS or CFS or both??

I have been dx w/ both.
Have a great weekend!

Oh yeah, I seen that one person had PCOS.  I was going to mention I had a total hysterectomy done because of anemia due to fibroids and endometriosis.

  I listed mine in time order too.  I have DDD also and didn't mention some of the "littlier" diagnosis like tendonitis.

  It looks like IBS could be the ONE common dx.  What do you think?

IBS
Depression
Tendinitis
PCOS

I also have scar tissue through my abdomen and pelvis.

[tonyad]

Wow!  I'm starting to see a bit of a "trend" several of us do in fact
overlap w/ dx..........

Good topic Tonya!  So many dx's always makes me wonder if there really is only one and since doc's can't figure it out, you end up with a whole bunch of them.  

I have been dx with:
  IBS, Interstitial cystitis, Inappropriate tacycardia, hypotension, RAD, GERD, CFIDS,  Fibromyalgia, Roscae, osteoarthritis, DFSP, rosacea, attention deficit, narcolepsy...

There's probably more but that's plenty to list!!
