I seem to have a lot more stomach related issues now too...more heartburn, more "rumblings" in my tummy, more nausea and just yuckiness...is this related to RA/FMS? Or is it because of the Aleve/Lodine I'm taking?
So much to learn...
I talked to the nurse this morning...she said I don't have Lupus...I KNEW THAT ALREADY! I said, can I please get the referral to the Rheumy? She said, I don't know...the GP can see you here in the office...I said NO! I want a Rheumatologist...we'll see. I told her I expected a return call this afternoon.
Hugs all,
Keli

You go girl!!! You do NEED to see a rheumy! You have mentioned you have FM. IBS is a symptom of fibro. The rumblings could be this or it could be all the Aleve and Lodine. You really need to see a rheumy. I can't take anti-inflammatories any more. They cause cankor sores and stomach issues.
Sending ((((hugs)))),

Keli, it could very well be the NSAIDs you're taking that is causing your tummy upset, especially since you're taking both Lodine and Aleve.

Hi Keli!!
I agree with Molly,and Vicki. YOU MUST SEE A RHEUMY. A GP is just not educated enough to treat RA. My GP treated my RA in Germany
