--that these are two seperate entities, though there can be overlap; certainly, if one subscribes to the idea that fibro involves improperly contracting muscle or spasms that produce pressure points and pain, then this pressure can certainly compress nerves and produce neuropathic symptoms.

In other words, nerve pressure certainly can result in neuropathy, but so can a lot of other things (the nerves can be damaged in many ways that don't involve compressive forces).

The theoretical thinking about fibro is going through a lot of debate currently, inasmuch as some have complained it's used as a "catch-all" diagnosis when doctors can't figure anything else out, and becasue it's one of those diagnoses that tends to be applied rather easily to "hysterical women" (not unlike depression and anxiety).

The Wikipedia article on fibro gives a pretty succinct analysis of this:
