Is it really fibro?

Anyone ever wonder if it’s truly fibro? I try medication after medication, different lifestyle changes, etc, I sometimes wonder if fibro is a placeholder in a sense.

Yes… I think FM is adjunct diagnosis and created by a root diagnosis. For me it think it’s autoimmune.

Yes! I'm finally going through MRIs, and emgs, to make sure it's just fibromyalgia. When I was diagnosed she didn't run those tests. I finally am on some medication that seems to really help the nerve pain.

For many it's much more but because some things are hard to diagnose or takes time to pop up they just lable it fibro . I know its more for me and I'm determined to get the treatment I need ugh

Yep it’s a ‘catch all’ term for people like us. And the treatment isn’t a ‘one size fits all’. So frustrating. Hang in there ❤️
