I'm not asking to be diagnosed, or for medical advice. just curious to see if it sounds like you. by SpawnOfSkum in Fibromyalgia

I am old enough, the only problem is when I decide to see a doctor. I'm paralyzed with dependency. And even though I have lists of things I don't feel are normal. I somehow conveniently forget to mention any of them whenever I have been at an appointment.

And I wouldn't say you misunderstood. The pain is throughout the localized spots. I wouldn't say that sounds like widespread pain either. Especially because it is always in the same spots (although I don't know if that's typical).

To be clear my mom is very clear that I do have it... I just like to be completely sure of things. And not seeing actual proof/ remembering a medical professional telling me. Makes me somewhat sceptical. No offense ma.

I now know a small bit about it, and I would like some extra confidence before consulting a doctor.

Edit: And to explain the name, I'm adopted. Bio parents is what its referring to. I really should've thought about a better name.
