Phew

It seems that the blood test showing I had low sodium was a result of a mistake at the lab. So I spent all that time thinking I was dying of kidney disease. And I wasn't.
Anyway, the result of all the tests is that I definitely have fibromyalgia. My doctor is a little upset as it is, as he puts it, a 'dead-end diagnosis'. There is nothing that can be done about it, you can't treat it (just the symptoms) and you basically just have to live with it. DH asked the doctor is there is anything you can do to alleviate the symptoms (exercise or physio) and he said no......
