I don't claim to know, but my wife (who used to be a nurse at an inner city hospital) said the same thing.

What's the matter? Did your wheel bearings seize?

I'm neither delusional nor a drug user.

ETA: For the fucking record, I"ve been in pain for years, more in the last 2 than ever - constant, chronic pain - and I NEVER once asked for a narcotic script, nor was one offered, as the doctors I chose to go to feel the same way as I do - they want to treat the cause & not the symptoms. <knock off the personal attacks, please>

My wife is a nurse, and has been for 20 years, that's her opinion of fibromyalgia.  I'll take her word for it.

And it is a 'valid' reason to get on socialist insecurity disability. Hard to disprove.

Serious question: Is your "back doc" an actual MD?

I'm not doubting that you have legitimate pain issues, but many FM "sufferers" do not.  You can get better advice from a pain management specialist than you can from your imaginary friends on the internet anyway, so feel free to disregard my ignorant opinion.

It's a controversial diagnosis  often arrived at after many other conditions are ruled out or cannot be clinically diagnosed.



On a scale of 1 to 10 of conditions that are viewed with compassion, it gets a -3.

It is a made up word to explain any incurable pain of indeterminate origin. It is not a "thing" but a "catch-all" for things we don't know. Most of the people who claim it are seeking drugs. That makes it difficult for anyone who has real pain with an unknown cause.

Are you whiny? If not then you can probably rule out fibromyalgia. there is a personality type that goes along with the diagnosis.
