Thank you Mike. My new rheumatologist recently diagnosed me with fibromyalgia and I'm now aware that more of my problems are associated with fibromyalgia than with lupus, so it's good to have more information to help me understand this old problem with new dx. Thanks again Sue

I have fibromyalgia and diabetes and my furbaby is exceptionally good when I have bad days. He seems tuned into everything. Yorkies are amazing animals. I have had several different breeds of dogs but none were like the Yorkies I have had. They even look wise.

I've suffered from Fibromyalgia for over 40 years, from before hardly anyone knew there was a name for this syndrome.

It may be auto-immune, with a genetic tendency triggered by an illness or some other stress. ...
