has anyone with hashimoto's also developed rheumatoid arthritis or fibromyalgia after? I know it's going to get more autoimmune illnesses once you get one in the first place. I am just in so much pain, my muscles and joints are killing me constantly and I rarely get more than brief relief, no matter what kind of at home treatment I try. how did you get diagnosed? are there specific questions I should ask my doctor? I'm wondering if I can get help with the pain if I have an official diagnosis. or maybe hashis just hurts 🤷🏻♀️

One person shared that they were diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 1990, and then nothing for 20 years. In 2010, their rheumatologist did all the right tests, and they were diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus. Another person mentioned that they had some damage in their hands when they had imaging done a few years ago, but it was unclear if this was due to rheumatoid arthritis or Hashimoto's, which also causes inflammation. It seems that getting a diagnosis can be a complex process involving multiple tests and potentially seeing different doctors over a period of time.
