Default Fibro From PN ??

I was reading on aother BB that a patient who has PN, went to a Rheumy
and was told:
"....He told me that I have developed fibromyalgia due to the pn,..."
I've never heard of this as a development of PN before.
Any experience from anyone?
Just curious.

IMHO, fibro is the newest guy on the block as a catch-all Dx.
It is not Dx'd by any chemical (bloodwork) or mechanical test. Its subjective.

I remember when fibro wasn't even recognized as a legit malady, and
it was difficult to get docs to admit it existed. There was a forum for it here,
and on the OBT(or still is), and there was a lot of complaining about just that fact.
Now Lyrica is advertising on TV as being OKed for the treatment of fibro by the FDA.

Anyway, I'm digressing (who me?), again.
Anybody heard of PN causing fibro?
