My best friends have fibromyalgia, M.S, lupus... the treatments and tests are somewhat different, but we all share the fatigue, disability and dealing with a chronic illness, and struggling with the health system.

By the way, 30-50% of the people with fibromyalgia have undiagnosed SFN, so we have a lot in common.
I think it's fantastic your good friends are those with relatable conditions. I would love to meet more like this too. Obviously not good for them to have to deal with that but the shared understanding must make them so much more regarding
