[QUOTE="deb1960, post: 1715595, member: 245847"] Mine started after my husband was made redundant from a job that he'd been in for 38 years. I think I had a breakdown as it a very stressful time. I started to feel dizzy all the time and couldn't walk unaided and would sleep constantly. My gp sent me for masses of scans and tests to check for a brain tumour, MS, lupus and anything else she could think of. I went to the library and looked at lots of different medical books and then came across one written by a woman who had ME. It described exactly how I felt so I went back to the gp and said I think I might have ME. She sent me to a doctor Patrick at Crumpsall hospital in Manchester as he was the only doctor able to diagnose ME. After all the pressure tests etc he told me that I had fibromyalgia which is linked with ME. I can't complain about my treatment as I was provided with an experienced ME nurse to help me find coping methods and how to learn to pace myself. [/QUOTE]
