Fibromyalgia: How do you cope?

Good afternoon @bastersmom and @lioness. I have to jump in here. Not only is it problematic to enter the diagnosis of fibromyalgia, it is sometimes an insurance issue. I was given a "suspected" diagnosis once and my disability insurance which was provided by the company I worked for, was canceled. They told me I would have to get my own private disability insurance.

I set up the personal coverage application, got all my records, completed the tests and was denied coverage because of that one word, "suspected". I can't imagine what would have happened if it was a confirmed diagnosis. Be careful. Be joyful today.
