Other - Diseases - January 2007

I have been out of work since June 1st because of a variety of health problems and was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia by my GP and it was confirmed by the Rhuematologist that he referred me to.. I have researched the condition on various sites and am sure, without doubt, that it is the right diagnosis..
Although my pain is unbearable on some days, I am finding that I am having the most trouble with the "fibrofog" that is associated with Fibromyalgia.
I graduated w/ Honors from a local technical school for Medical Office Assisting in 1997 and have also spent the last few years doing Income Taxes for a local tax firm. But now there are days when I feel that I can not "think my way out of a paper bag"
I could almost live with the pain, but this symptom is really getting me down.. Does anyone else have this trouble or know of a way to get some kind of relief??
And only serious answers please, this condition DOES exist and hearing ppl condemn us diagnosed with it does not help matters..

I have had digestive problems for the past 2 months. I have extreme nausea all day and can barely function. I also have been dizzy, some stomach pains, diarrhea, and loss of appitite, hard to concentrate, and fatigue.I have had culture tests, blood tests, and urine tests all negative. could this be a hormone imbalance? yeast overgrowth? I don't know I've run out of ideas but still feel sick.

my sister was on a long flight sunday and suffered the common "bloatedness" in her gut, which led to sharp attacks of wind. upon getting home and going to the toilet, she told me she has been excreting what appears to be water. she hears drops in the water and there is nothing there, so it has to be water. should she consult a doctor about this or is it just the gut clearing itself out?
