If you were diagnosed with fibromyalgia before getting checked by a neurologist, or rheumatologist, try going back. Unless they rule out all muscle diseases, and arthritis, they can't be sure that you have fibromyalgia!

Rheumatologist
I
went to the rheumatologist today for the first time since 1998, when I
was 16. It was much better now that I'm 31 and she actually took me
seriously! She's starting all over with diagnosis, and she ordered so
many more tests than they did back then! They took the usual 7 vials of
blood and a UA. But she also got me an appointment with a neurologist
for May, Physical Therapy for next week for a full analysis and
consultation, and an MRI of my brain to be scheduled next week! I can't
believe how much more peaceful I feel, knowing that my doctor is
actually taking me seriously.
