I was diagnosed by a rheumatologist with fibromyalgia. My blood test showed RA in my blood so my PC referred me to the rheumatologist and he advised I did not have RA but that my symptoms pointed to fibromyalgia. He prescribed a few different medications starting with gabapentin, which made me gain 30 pounds the first month so was switched to Lyrica that put even more weight on and stopped that. Then I was prescribed Savella. None of them seemed to help my problems so now I don't take a medication for it. My knees do swell at times and I do have pain in many areas. Tired most of the time as well but I have other issues too. Severe iron deficiency, Celiacs, IBS, & Factor V Leiden. I am trying to adjust with all of these at the same time and so far nothing seems to improve. I pretty much stay home all the time other than Dr appointments because of all the anxiety from my issues. I am 73 years old.
