Anonymous asked: I think I may have fibromyalgia. I have literally every symptom. I realize that a lot of those symptoms can be caused by multiple other things though. What sort of doctor do you go to to ask about that? Any doctor? I don't want to just go to my family doctor and say I think I have it because he always just agrees with me and I usually end up being Very Wrong because I'm not a doctor :s

I don’t have fibromyalgia.  My grandmother does, and my grandfather did.  I don’t know a whole lot about how to get diagnosed, though.
