I'm 66. I believe fibro is a real condition that I may well fit the parameters of however 7 specialists in 3 states did not settle on it. Prednisone was one of the many medications I was given and more than once. I was with my PCP for 20+years before his retirement. He continued searching because my symptoms worsened over time despite meds and therapy.
Confusion and falling are paramount with lack of restful sleep as well as other health issues.
Trying to have a conversation with doc about how I had gotten to these last 3 medications was where she abruptly walked out. I was simply trying to explain not argue. It was an information appt.
