My post was misunderstood ,

Fibromyalgia, IS a real disease, it was not recognized by doctors at that time; It's still not known what causes it. There are several doctors/researchers that found Spirochetes (Lyme complex disease) in many of these patients. When treatment for this was tried some got well. It's still controversial .

The illness was not invented , The name "fibromyalgia" was.
It's a syndrome, meaning a group of symptoms so it is not a disease but a condition.
I never said it was funny , I don't know where you got that from.




I have chronic lyme disease and co/infections since 2003; Many ER trips, Black outs, in a coma for months followed be a year in the Hospital, 2 years of rehab just to learn how to walk again and Lost my sight for weeks. I finally got out of my wheelchair and can function somewhat again with a walker. I do still have many of the symptoms but not as bad since years of treatment.
