Looking for answers beyond fibromyalgia diagnosis

I was diagnosed with fibro last year but I have had so many other weird symptoms that I’m convinced that is not the end of the story. My labs always come back relatively normal despite my obvious health struggles. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced anything similar and what what the breaking point that made someone actually listen

Your answer

Have had fibromyalgia since I was 13 years old. Was able to stay active until 2008 when pain was too great to work. No medication has helped

What are the other symptoms you have? unfortunately fibro can be presented with relatively normal lab results, that’s why it took them forever to diagnose me 🤦‍♀️

It took me finally getting to go to Mayo, having one main dr there and him sending me to subspecialties. They were amazing and reported back to him. They were very familiar with fibro and knew right away. My family dr thought maybe but wasn't comfortable making that big diagnosis. Best of luck!
