Fibromyalgia, IBS, and Hashimoto’s

I have the 3 diseases in this unholy trinity and I’m wondering if anyone else here does, too. I know they are associated, although I’m not sure how common it is to have all three.

I’ve learned to cope, and I generally lead a normal life. But sometimes I worry (irrationally?) that I have another sinister, underlying condition. That maybe my symptoms (some of which are not entirely explained by these 3 disorders) are all part of some even worse dysfunction. I would love to hear from other people and learn about their experiences. It might put my mind to rest. Or maybe not. Either way, I’m down to discuss.

Do you have any other weird symptoms or diagnoses? Have you heard any theories (or have your own) about why these three disorders are correlated? For you, does having symptoms of one cause the others to rear their heads?

And, finally, what does it mean for us to get Covid? Are we more vulnerable to complications than the average person?

Thanks, hope you’re well. Take care, fellow frail ones.
