I've looked on all the lists that were suggested and just can't find any in my area that specialize in FMS, or even treat it! I've been told to just make an appointment with a rhuematoligist and see what happens, but I'm worried he'll just look at me as a hypocondriach or something. THAT is definitely NOT the case. By husband begged me to go to the doctor for quite a while before I even made an appointment with my Primary Care Physician. But when my mom started having symptoms of FMS, even her own kids(my brothers and sister)thought she was overdoing it. My oldest brother still doesn't believe it...even thought he's seen the struggle my mom goes through. It's like everyone wants to see the scientific evidence of what it is, how it is caused, and what can cure it before they'll even believe it's a real problem. sorry fo rrambling, I do it alot. I'm just don't like being treated like an idiot, I think I should have as much respect from a doctor as someone with any other disease would get!
Thanks,
