I met with Dr. Theresa Dowell from Four Peaks Health in Flagstaff, Arizona. If I end up moving there, you'll know why. Dr. Dowell was amazing. We spent over two hours discussing my history, going through each and every symptom, asking/answering questions and she has given me some more insight.
Dr. Dowell is not questioning the Fibromyalgia diagnosis, she said that I also have all the markers of ME/CFS. However, she went beyond that. She had me do some bending of joints and said that I hit the markers for Ehler's Danlos-Hypermobility. I am going to be tested for a gene for that as well as Mast Cell Activation Syndrome. Based on all the information provided, there is a strong case for having MCAS and POTS-Dysautonomia.
