Anyone with Fibromyalgia?

Question

I'm 20 and was diagnosed last year. Here in France it's really hard meeting a doctor that knows about it and/or gives you good advices. Had to order a English book about it to get to know more on my own problem. -.- 
They don't even recognize it as an invalidating health issue!!! Sometimes they don't even want to diagnose because "you'll have trouble getting a loan at the bank" wtf honestly

Answer

Hi,  diagnosed 8 years now.   Trust me,  NO doctor knows what the hell their doing with FMS.   New research comes out every day it seems.   Best thing to do is research,  research,  research and take articles with you.   You are your best advocate.

I was recently diagnosed with it this past year, along with neuropathy in my arms/hands and legs/feet. I'm 26 and have had severe rheumatoid arthritis for 20 years (yes, I was 6 when I was diagnosed). I'm still learning a lot about fibromyalgia, and it's difficult for me to determine what symptoms are attributed to which disease.
