I don't know if anyone can answer this, or if perhaps I just feel a need to complain...I am 44 and was just told that I have cataracts and will need surgery within 6 months. Is this connected with the fibromyalgia? I was diagnosed with the fibro in 1993 and it seems that whenever I adjust my life, find a hobby or something to keep me going I develop a new symptom. I have developed a sensitivity/allergy to most pain meds and I am at the point of what the hell next! I gave up crocheting due to pain, reading and beading are to follow? I can not even enjoy TV, too much of a headache(literally) to focus. this will even affect my job. I feel like pulling out my hair in frustration.
