Patient discussion about Aunts.

Q. My aunt suffered from digestive disorder a few months back. My aunt suffered from digestive disorder a few months back. First we were told that this symptom reveal that she is suffering from fibromyalgia. Later another doctor diagnosed her and said that she is not affected by fibromyalgia. So we like to know actually what is fibromyalgia sometimes mistaken for?

A. I have received similar questions from many of my friends so you are not the first person to have such question, so don’t worry. Usually fibromyalgia is initially mistaken for several other conditions, including Lyme disease, lupus, depression and rheumatoid arthritis to name just a few illnesses. Other conditions for which fibromyalgia is occasionally mistaken include digestive disorders, sleep disorders and thyroid problems. Often, it is because the various symptoms of fibromyalgia are so similar to the symptoms of other disorders that many FMS patients do not receive a proper diagnosis for many years. And this is also why it is especially critical to be seen by either a rheumatologist or a pain specialist to ensure a proper diagnosis, and to rule out other conditions.

Q. What do we do with her? She is an orphan and has only uncle and aunt who don’t want her. I am living with my roommate for the past 1 year. Something strange and new is happening these days. She wanders off somewhere, leaving me guessing. She won’t tell me where or for what purpose she goes. Someone`s valuables are often found in her bag. I am sure it’s been stolen by her. Her contacts with boys have increased and she is regularly going out with them. When I tried to advise her, she started her activities again but on a discreet note. I don’t know what’s happening. Nowadays she remains depressed and sad. She sleeps a lot. She has stopped going for her classes after she had a fight with our classmate. What do we do with her? She is an orphan and has only uncle and aunt who don’t want her.

A. she is a student? if so- any college or university has a psychologist standing by and ready to help in those kind of cases. if not- be a good friend. talk to her, try to show her that her life changed very fast in a very extreme way and she may need help. a psychiatrist maybe..
tell us

Q. My aunt is diagnosed for fibromyalgia since 2002. What`s the cause of this syndrome of fibromyalgia? My aunt is diagnosed for fibromyalgia since 2002. Last week end when she came to meet us and then I found the magnitude of the pain she is was having. My mom use to say that she is living with a highly painful fibromyalgia and I never figured it put as it would be so terrible. The pain and the cramps she was living with for so many years came to the understanding that this makes life tough. I want to know that what`s the cause of this syndrome of fibromyalgia?

A. As of now no one knows the cause. But identified reasons are sleep problems, some infection of bacteria; continuous strain and stress which is psychological in nature, any damage to spinal cord, genetic cause is highly evident, dysfunction of neurotransmitters are some of the possible causes for fibromyalgia. Yet more research is required.
