I was diagnosed with hashimoto's syndrome at the beginning of this year. I am on the meds but my levels are going the wrong way....I had a positive ana and was referred to a rheumy who now says I have fibro....

I was also diagnosed with Epstein Barr syndrome and have a severe vitamin D problem.... 2 years ago I was doing just fine..then all of a sudden a slippery slope and I am at the bottom.

I feel like the hits just keep on coming...but my real question is....does hypothyroidism cause pain and confusion? Any advice on how to manage...

Thank you in advance and feel well

You might have developed Lupus. I just developed lupus (positive ANA, low inflamatory marks, and hypothyroidism).
I suffer from pain in my hands and feet all the time. At times I get random pain in other joints and suffer from horrible exhaustion.

13 yrs ago everything started falling apart on me. Glaucoma, asthma, sleep apnea, hypothyroidism, GERD, multiple allergies, and now Lupus. :(
