Our Template for reporting symptoms to your GP
Talking to Your Doctor
Fibromyalgia sufferers look to their GP for help. Often, we may feel that we are not listened to or understood. It can be hard know how to explain the pain we are suffering. If we suffer from other issues as well, this makes it even harder. It is often difficult for us to distinguish between the different problems and the resulting pain, so how can we give our GP a full picture?
Fibromyalgia has so many other symptoms, you may not suffer with them all, nor will another sufferer. In other words, none of us will be suffering in the same way. Your doctor will not know how you are being affected unless you present them with a full picture.
You could try completing this template about your symptomsbefore you see your GP. If you give it to them, it may help you explain your pain better, as you can discuss the different areas. You could also use it to evaluate the benefit of any new therapy you try.
