I've had fibro for 20 years and I've never heard of any classifications for it.

I never heard of a classification either. I agree with Fletch if they cant even agree on whether fibro is real how would they agree on classification. I have only heard of it being mild, moderate, or severe.
I have dystonia, neuropathy, gerd, arthritis, and fibromyalgia, carpal tunnel and other ailments. I enjoy embroidery,music, and reading my Bible and Christian books. I love to bake. I try to be very supportive and positive.
