Thanks to all who replied. I read the info regarding MVA, and of course my attorney didn't believe it, and said its best to settle now, otherwise, I would receive less then the offer since fibro does not have any "real tests". It didn't help that the neuro surgeon I saw (prior to my rheumy) said fibro is just a term doctors come up with when they cannot find anything else. BS!!!

I have read so many things on fibro, and with all the findings and symptoms , they hit the needle on the nose. This site is wonderful because it further authenicates that this pain is real. By the way, I do like my nickname!
