A very rough night
Hi all:
Last night was a very rough night. I woke up with burning pain in my legs and arms. Slept in two-hour stints, despite trazodone. Just wondering what the heck is happening to my body, a month ago I had tingling in my arms and a sore foot, now I have pain that awakens me and frightens me. I have had various aches and pains over years. I just attributed to overuse or strains.
I have contacted my docs to let them know of the new developments. When they did tests on me late last month, both my GP and infection disease docs did not suspect RA. I do have Lyme and initially went to my ID doc because I suspected being reinfected. Late-stage Lyme has similar symptoms.
I have an appt. with a rhum on Feb. 28 (don't know what I am going to do between now and then). I had to move heaven and earth to get that moved up from April! So, thank goodness it's a lot closer now and hopefully a lot closer to diagnosis and treatment.
I am posting here as a newbie because I have not had a formal diagnosis yet.
Had to come here and vent.
Tito
