To be dx'd with FM you might want to try a Rheumatologist. They are the most familiar before pain docs with the symptoms and how to treat you. The pain specialist is right. If the pn is FM, the stim may not work so much because it is muscular. I also have pn in my left leg because of sciatica. Every 6 months or so I get Radio Frequency Ablations of the nerves around the L3 thru L5 area to stop the pain. I am actually do for one next week.
There are plenty of options, but my next step would be a Rheumy.
