Guest guest Posted February 17, 2004 Report Share Posted February 17, 2004 With fibromyalgia, you will have specific " tender points " around the body. For a doctor to give you a diagnosis of fibro, you need to have at least 11, out of the 18 tender points. I have all 18 but I am doing fine with it and it hasn't interrupted my daily life. > hi there, > well, i guess i'm starting to accept my diagnosis of chronic fatigue > immune syndrome/difficiency. i broke down last night cause i hate how > my life has to change. i cant do as much, and i hate giving in to > this damn disease. still trying to figure out if i have the fibro > too. i'm just really down in the dumps. my husband says we'll get > thru this, but i just dont like being this way. > sorry to be a bummer. > julie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
