Answers:
Fibromyalgia is usually diagnosed when everything else is ruled out. You must have at least 11 out of 18 tender points for it to be classified as Fibromyalgia. I was diagnosed 8 years ago, and I'm now 38. It took my doctor like 2 weeks to diagnose it after she did a ton of lab work on me. The best advice I can give you is this website "National Fibromyalgia Association". I wouldn't wish this illness on anybody..it's pure hell from there on.
