                        I have been having problems for about 15 years.  I started with back problems.  Then I would get flare ups and would be very sick(like the flu).  I have been to so many doctors.  At first they thought I had Lupus(SLE)then they said it may be sclederma, and now they say I have Rhuematoid Arithritis.  I also have carpal tunnel syndrome.  And now I am experiencing L5-S1 problems in my back with a pinched nerve.  I left my last job 1 1/2 years ago because I felt so bad.  Sometimes I feel like I need to push it and go back to work.  But it is so hard.  Don't really know what I can do. I really am not confident of what I really have!  Any advise on this would be appreciated.
