Yep, it could be. Though I'm glad that you are going to a rheumy. You should get checked out of other things as well since FM mimics so many other things. As to exercise, you're gonna need to start slowly and work up. Sounds like you are also gonna need your thyroid checked. FM mimics thyroid problems and those can also cause the inability to lose weight. Welcome to the group as well! I've been off for a bit and just now saw this so I apologize for my slow welcome.

I used to have a lot of 'lows' since becoming member here at MdJunction I no longer have these lows." (Dit)
