Hello and good evening from nyc...this is my 1st time posting and could use some help........i'm going to see the a rheumotologist on 9/22 but i was wondering if i ran down my symptoms could someone tell me if it sounds like fibromyalgia

constant headaches

jaw pain

lower back and buttock pain (even though i have a slight herniation at l5-si which all the docs agree doesn't account for the pain)

stiffness from the base of my skull going down both sides to my upper traps/shoulders

elbow pain

ibs/frequent urination

tired all the time regardless of how much sleep i get

anxiety/depression which seem to alternate

swelling and dull ache in my wrist/hands that go away for some time and re-appear and stay around for a couple of weeks

forgetting what i want to say and forgetting dates etc....when i used to be sharp as a tack

i'm only 28/male and this all came about after neck surgery last year.....breezed through the fusion surgery but all this kicked bout 3 months afterwards.............any and all responses are much obliged....hope the doc doesn't think i'm a drug seeking lunatic cause i'd rather exercise and take supplements rather than live on a life of pills.....although i really could use something 4 the stiffness......i currently lift weights/physical therapy (over a year now)...chiropractor......msm....mobic... ..ditropan xl.....calcium...vitamin c..i've been checked for lupus/thyroid conditions/ankoloysing spyndolitis/ra
