There are alot of drs who feel it's a wastebasket term and treat accordingly. It's unfair to both those that do have it and to those that in fact don't but are labeled with it and noone looks for the true cause. I do have fm but for 10 yrs after getting that label noone wanted to look for anything else until I insisted and began dxing myself. It is one reason we aren't taken seriously by some of the medical community. Amy~ “When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.” ~Franklin D. Roosevelt
