Hello,
I am new around here - I usually hang out on MS forums since I have MS

I have a few questions about Fibro because my MIL has it and I'm trying to find out more about this disease.

My most urgent question is about the effects of having the Flu and how it can effect someone with fibro. I want the Family to take Mom to urgent care Today since she has had a fever of 102 for past few days and She was speaking incoherently. The fever has gone down today but she has a nasty cough and coughing up yellow Junk. She is 68yr old and in not such great shape!!!

Now I want all of you to KNOW that I Know she should be seen but we live 275 miles away...........I would like to get some feedback from some of you out there that KNOW what this disease can do to you when you get sick.

I am at my wits end.....They think I'm nuts& that since her fever has gone down no need to worry.

Please respond as I am worried about Mom not just about having the flu but also what it can do concerning the Fibro also.

Thank you so much
