@jennmoh3 - Seriously, fibromyalgia is on their list of approved conditions for disability. You could get a lawyer involved, if you want to go that route. When I completed the (very extensive) application for disability, I made it clear several times that the pain in my hands precluded me from computer work, and that I had to get family and friends to write/type the application for me due to the hand pain. They also sent me to a doctor for examination and I was able to show that I could not perform the required functions for my job (which at the time was a bank consultant working on a computer for several hours a day).
