I lived in Michigan and I had to complain about my symptoms for a year before I was tested for fms. One day I woke up and the pain was worse than ever. I couldn’t move my head, bend over, and even my steps were painful. I had to make an emergency appt. with my doctor, who wasn’t in that day so lucky for me. I got a doctor who tested me right away and we found I was suffering from fms. My doctor who I'd been seeing for over a decade didn’t believe my symptoms and thought I might just be trying to get narcotics for recreational purpose. My mother had the same doctor and she has fms might I add and my doc still didn’t think to test me. Might I add that she didn’t believe in prescribing narcotics. After I tried everything they could give me and nothing helped, I was lucky enough to get a doc who cared enough to test me for the illness and prescribe narcotics. After I was tested and my regular doc seen the proof and that narcotics was the only thing that could give me relief, it was no problem getting the help I needed. Even physical therapy twice over didn’t help. Then as we all know, Michigan’s economy went sour and I moved to the state of Wyoming where it is easier to schedule open heart surgery than to find a doc to help with your fms. I found a doc
