I still think that the drug co is pushing docs for Dx'ng 'fibro'.
The ad on TV for Lyrica is one example of putting it (shoving it) into patients' minds. It may be a true condition, but there are too many Dx's for it, & it is used as a dumping ground when the docs can't find another cause. Testing is mostly subjective and no one test will Dx it unconditionally. Diagnostically, overuse and mis-diagnoses when the docs are too lazy to go any farther in testing.
