Lack of diagnosis

I have had by B and D checked and have to supplement both to keep my levels in check. Every doc I've been to for over 10 years have said that this looks like lupus but I don't have a specific marker. I do accupucture every other week and that gives the pain some relief for a few hours but we haven't been able to address other issues. Chiropractic has seemed to cause more inflammation than I would like but I haven't tried massage.. honestly I've been apprehensive. The weakness, especially so much in such a short amount of time has been the worst of it all. I would take the pain ten times over the fatigue and the worry of the next seizure. Sadly I've been through dozens of doctors. Partially due to changes in insurance and partially due to my location and limitations on quality physicians. I so appreciate, more than you know the prayers. My faith I think sometimes is the only thing I have to hold on to.

George1969, Bless you. IF you do decide to get a massage, DO NOT get a deep tissue massage. They have to go very gently with a fibro patient. My massage therapist rubs me down with the Voltaren Gel that I mentioned to you. The weakness and fatigue is very hard, I agree. Take a nap if you need to for a few minutes each day. It helps your body. Chiropractors can be a little to heavy handed and you have to find one that is gentle with your pain. I pray you get relief soon and answers.
