diagnosis for second cousin

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

Your cousin's pain sounds similar to my fibromyalgia pain. I know there is

some type of correlation between psoriasis and fibromyalgia. There are no

definitive lab tests for fibro but it can be diagnosed by a physician who is

familiar with " Tender points: " . When These places are pressed people with

fibro experience more than a usual amount of pain.

Does anyone else also have fibro and PA? I get frustrated when my doctors

don't take one or the other seriosly although I have to admit it can be

tricky to tell the pain apart. It turns into a big blob sometimes.

Good luck to your cousin and best wishes to all,

Marti W.
