Should I call my Dr???

So I have fibromyalgia, so this leads me to shy away from going to the doctor when I hurt. Since I got my BFP my fibro symptoms have been easy breezy, until today. I have a ton of pain all down my left side, mostly in my arm and neck. 

Am I overreacting? Should I call my doctor? I don't want to be a neurotic pregnant women but can any of us really avoid it?

Any suggestions, or other's with FB or CFS that have any experience?

  • When in doubt, call.  They'd rather know and assess whether it's a real issue or not that not know and miss something important.

  • i don't have it but i will say this. seeing a doctor usually comes with astronomical costs (insurance + co-pays, etc.) and therefore you should get your money's worth. not to mention, peace of mind is important. if your doctor treats you poorly because you called in with a question, s/he doesn't deserve you as a patient. pregnancy can hurt anyways, what will all the growing and adjusting, so someone with special circumstances deserves special service.

  • I wouldn't but i don't have fibromyalgia. You'll have a lot of aches and pains with pregnancy but only you and your doctor know what to be concerned with regarding your fibro.

    Agree with this.
