From what my Dr has told me there is no test for FM. It is a process of what it is not nd if they can’t find anythign wrong with you it is called FM. She said that they used to call them hypochondriacs but now that everyone sues so they medicate them now and try to manage their every expanding complants. She also told me that if they really had to dal with diease like her patients do they would not know what to do. She specializes in treatment of type 1 diabetes. I don’t know but this is what she said and considering that 98% of those with FM also report childhood abuse....it does make you wonder.
I have had fibro for many years and believe me, there was never any child abuse in my case. Some so called doctors should never be anywhere near patients. I know that for a fact. Hubby died because the stupid oncologist said he did not have anything related to cancer. Yeah, very funny since he died 3 months later from liver cancer. We should have sued that nut. How many other families went through what we did because of his stupidity. Even my family dr said we should have. Daughter died 2 years before him because the drs would not listen to her and us. We are fed up with doctors who should never be allowed anywhere near patients. Don’t get me started. When any of us have any unusual symptoms, I start doing research.
