HI, Fairly new here.
39 years old Previously diagnosed with ADD as an adult, I currently am being treated my meds for Depression and a pain disorder. I was just exploring online and found that some people say that ADD/ADHD and Fibromyalgia may be linked.
I curious and looking for answers. My Dr. has not given me a reason for the pain I feel. Just tells me when my life is less stressful I will feel better. My life as better than it has ever been. I have a great family husband, supportive kids. My health is my only major stressor. I have now just been given a referal to an ADD/ADHD specialist to maybe if we are see able changing my meds. As it is right now I am taking meds to treat the pain (20mg Amitrytline) and depression (10mg of Cypralex). Not terribly high doses as I am very sensitive to alot of different meds.
I am hoping that if we maybe treat the ADD first I can feel more higher functioning as a person and maybe the other symptoms might be treated at the same time. Here's hoping.
:thankyou2:Thanks for your stories and insights. Nice to sort'a meet you all.
Keep up the good work.
