It is real pain. Either your doctor needs to get up to date on the fibro

research or you need to find a different doctor.

My fibro was diagnosed in the early 1960's, when I was 10 or 11 years old. The

name fibromyalgia didn't exist back then. First the docs called what I had

rheumatism, then they changed their diagnosis to fibrostitis. It wasn't until

the 1990's that they started calling it fibromyalgia.

I just did a search using the words " rheumatism " and " fibrostitis " and found

this article from the Vancouver Courier in British Columbia, Canada:
