some fibro doesn't have nerve damage. They call it central sensitization - more of a central thing vs peripheral I guess. It's interesting to see what they are coming up with for the diagnosis of "muscle pain". I hate that diagnosis anyway.
fibro-muscle, myalgia- pain. It really irks me. Even before the sfn was diagnosed the doctors apologized for giving me such a waste basket diagnosis. NO duh, my muscles hurt. Now tell me why, now they find the nerve damage.... okay, there's why, but how come that happened. SO frustrated and this NY weather is making me hurt and !
