Hi, I have a very bad back and trying to get my health better as it seems to have gone downhill the past several years.  When I was about 27 I was told I have a Thyroid disorder and put on meds that messed me up so badly I was in and out of conscience.  I have been also told that I have Fibromyalgia.  I honestly don't know what to think.  I've seen so many Dr's and had different diagnoses but nothing seems to help.  I am in severe pain daily and don't even know why I feel like I do.  I can't  enjoy my life, everything seems it had to be put on hold due to this and me also getting injured did not help I'm sure.  I broke my back originally in 1998, fractured tailbone, 2 herniations.  Now as of 2013 it's gotten to where I have 2 vert bulged out by 7 mm.  It may not sound to be a lot but feeling it is a diff story!  Also have spinal stenosis, arthritis other herniations, very bad sciatica which is sometimes the worst of the pain.  It's to the point where I just can't deal w the pain and it seems like nothing helps.  I'm starting to think maybe surgery would help and I have been told before I am a good candidate but this was yrs ago....I would really like to have a professional opinion as to what the best thing is for me to do and what do you think is causing certain things such as my scalp hurts, badly.  How knowledgeable are you regarding Lupus?  I would greatly appreciate your help.Regards,Lisa MeadorI live in Hawaii if that is of any help to you to know where I reside.  I am 33 and have been diagnosed with havingFibromyalgia.  I really do not feel this is what I have nor am I completely convinced that this disease is known well enough.
