My OXY Rx is only for 30 days. Don't know what I'll do after. It's only to get me through the pain til I have hernia surgery. Doc wants me to lose more weight for better healing and less recurrence chance.

I'm glad... heck, you are too, that you were finally properly diagnosed. No tears.

I think my mother suffered from it too, but back then the docs all told you "it's all in your head". She's in her 80's now and everything hurts. The fibro word never made it out of any docs mouth, but she's on strong daily meds anyway. It helps.
