Anybody else get gaslit by people in the medical field that aren’t your doctor? I was diagnosed with fibro a little over year ago and my doctor made me feel really comfortable with the diagnosis. However once I told my mom (who was a CT tech/ radiologist) she immediately told me that “fibromyalgia is a BS diagnosis and it’s just a way for doctors to say I don’t know what’s wrong with you but here take this” .

I have had multiple doctors before I was diagnosed. After I was finally diagnosed Drs would question me when I told them I had fibro. They would be like were you really diagnosed by a Dr or yourself and Dr Google.
Its not a BS diagnosis unless the doctors are using it that way. There are actual studies that show that it is a real condition and debilitating at that.
