Good luck with this Christie. It does sound awfully like you have Fibro, you poor thing! Like LS said, although there isn't s cure, there are loads to things that can help with symptoms (kinda like IBS! ). And the non-refreshing sleep is the easiest thing to treat!
I like Fibrohugs but there are loads of websites on this. Just be very sceptical of some! ![](/messageboards/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif)
Btw, for about 8 years, my Fibro symptoms were very intermittent, so not having the pain everyday has nothing to do with it! Also, remember that having IBS along with the other symptoms is an indicator of Fibro in itself.
I'd go to your GP and talk to them about this. If they're not sympathetic, ask to see another doctor. Fibromyalgia Syndrome is a recognised illness, so it's not acceptable for your doctor to not take you seriously. Some GPs will diagnose Fibro, some will need you to see arheumatologist before you can get a diagnosis.
Good luck! {{{{HUGS}}}}
