I don't doubt that some people are really suffering from things like fibro and chronic fatigue syndrome, I just don't think the cause is as mysterious and intangible as people make it out to be.
That's all I have to say about that.
I have multiple sclerosis and can relate to many comments made in this thread. Most ailments have hidden symptoms. Symptoms are not visible to the casual observer. My associates will just remind me, when I’m complain, my problems are just in my head.
I agree asking for and getting referrals. The problem I’ve found is speciality practices are booked solid. Even those with branch offices in the many suburbs will book you months out, if at all. They are short staff.
I believe Fibromyalgia is real.

Physiology of Blood Coagulation
Abstract. Blood coagulation forms part of an integrated series of haemostatic reactions, involving plasma, platelet, and vascular components. Platelets adhere to damaged endothelium or to subendothelium under the influence of adhesive proteins, and when activated they aggregate and expose...

It depends what you mean by “manage”. I.e. It is better to cut yourself with a chainsaw instead of a razor-sharp axe.Physiology of Blood Coagulation

When I was a teenager, I slipped while mowing and the mower went over my foot. Long story short, Dr. had been in practice for 30+ years, and sort of laughed as it was the cleanest cut from a lawn mower he had ever seen. Seven stitches across the bottom of my toes. I had just sharpened the mower blade the day prior. He said that was probably what saved all my toes.
This is the single stupidest post I have seen on here. Find a single medial professional that says a chainsaw injury is better then a clean cut.It depends what you mean by “manage”. I.e. It is better to cut yourself with a chainsaw instead of a razor-sharp axe.Physiology of Blood Coagulation

This guy is cranky because of his fibromyalgia.
Took the double down approach, I respect it, I don't agree with it, but I respect it.It depends what you mean by “manage”. I.e. It is better to cut yourself with a chainsaw instead of a razor-sharp axe.Physiology of Blood Coagulation

My uncle, who was a surgeon in the U.S. Army for 20 years and Chief of Thoracic Surgery in a St. Louis hospital for 25 years explained to me why a jagged cut will clot faster than a clean cut. The premise was I was asking him what to include in an IFAK for someone like me who is often far from help and wording with sharp objects. You’re talking about ease of dealing with the injury and cosmetics afterwards. I’m talking about dealing with a serious injury with no help available.
Also, I’m not sure somebody who doesn’t know the difference between ‘then’ and ‘than’ should be pointing out stupidity.
Oh ****, we're pulling out imaginary uncles and grammar already???
My uncle, Dr. Benjamin Franklin Pierce was an army surgeon and then a well respected doctor in Crabapple Cove, Maine after the war, he said exactly what @FriendlySpartan is saying.

I want to hear more about the wording with sharp objects. Sounds like someone got a way-too-dangerous dictionary.
I'd rather cut myself with a chainsaw than get a paper cut because jagged cuts are better.
I’m just stopping with the guy. It’s amazing when people get one kernel of information and think they are an expert. Dude is right about the clotting for pretty minor wounds but is wrong about everything else. Jagged wounds take longer to heal, are incredibly difficult to manage if there had been an amputation, and almost always need medical care to stay closed.
If he can't get a reaction from you here, he'll move to harassing you via PM next. Definitely a very level-headed, reasonable person.
If only his beloved cousin Billy would not have pushed him out of the boat. Causing Hawkeye so much betrayal, he altered his memory of the event for almost a lifetime.
