I thought I had a bunch of different problems until I got to Mayo and learned I have ehlers Danlos syndrome. I was misdiagnosed most of my life. Mayo is the only place I found that truly understands fibro and EDS. It’s a hard journey to get an accurate diagnosis and treatment.
I also am constantly plagued with fatigue. Every morning is a struggle because I just feel so exhausted & a lot of times pain is worst in the mornings for me. The few household chores I am able to do have to be in increments with a lot of resting in between. I have been diagnosed with fibro plus spondyloarthritis which I was told causes a lot of my lower back pain. Plus functional neurological disorder.
