Hi everyone :) I know I don't know any of you at all and I realize I don't have the right to ask but if you pray, send positive energies, believe in helping others or what have you I could really use it.

I'm managing my fibromyalgia which lately my flares have been almost debilitating. I sleep way too much but only because I'm literally drugged up. Please no one worry my children are in school while I'm in this state. The day after Christmas I am going to see by gynecologist because I have serious issues with my cycles. I am concerned that what is wrong with me is something big not something simple because this has gone on for years and has only gotten worse. Two days after that appointment I have to go and see a new cardiologist. I have constant chest pain that never leaves and yes changes in intensity at various moments. Again I know I shouldn't worry and be optimistic that things are simple but it's hard to remain optimistic. I feel as though my body is giving out on me.

I'm scared something is going to happen to me that I cannot fix. I'm 29, 2 children, married. I have PTSD, severe anxiety, generalized anxiety disorder, depression, fibromyalgia and whatever else in the world is going on with me.

I thank you all for any kind words and thoughts as well as prayers. I've been a devout Atheist for years but in recent months have been finding myself drawn to the Bible - which I am reading from the beginning. Once again thank you all for allowing me to ask this of you wonderful people.

If I've already asked this of you please forgive me I do have a brain injury so my memory is shot.

What can I do next?

Read the New Testament, Proverbs and Psalms in the Old Testament. Don't try to go through the whole Bible right now - I don't think that would be helpful.

Have you tried Prilosec OTC for your chest pain? That happens to me ever so often. Take it in the morning with a full glass of water. It can take a week or so to really make a difference. It's good that you're going to the cardiologist, but if they find nothing, this is a good choice.

Rosemud is right about the exercise. So sorry about your problems.

Sending strength your way. Please try to incorporate some exercise in your life, if you do not already do so. It can work wonders.

It's ok to be anxious and concerned about yourself! You're human! Try to take a deep breath and deal with what is on your plate a day at a time. You are taking all the right steps to figure out what/who can help you with your health! You are on the right track! I will definitely send prayers your way. Blessings and peace!

I will definitely send prayers--I'm sorry that you're going through this--but I also like to send practical suggestions too. A) Please do some looking into your magnesium levels, or even just start taking a magnesium supplement to see if it helps all of your symptoms. Most of us are at least somewhat deficient, so it shouldn't hurt you to take it, but it could help a lot. The Magnesium Miracle by Carolyn Dean really opened my eyes to a lot of things. B) Call this Naturopathic Dr. http://doctor-wallace.com, she's in Vancouver, but she also does phone consults. Be warned that she'll ask you to make HUGE dietary changes, but she has really good success with people with chronic illnesses and she has a brain injury too, so you have that in common!
