Very interesting article @A MyFibroTeam Member. EBV keeps coming back into the picture when it comes to FM/ME and Lyme,etc. It will be interesting to know what finally plays out as the causative factor in these illnesses. Wouldn't it be great if it happened in my lifetime. I would give everything so that other people with these illnesses would not have to go through the same stigma and disbelief that we currently go through today. Wouldn't that be heaven!

Hello Morehope i have been diagnosed with Fibro and CFS i was diagnosed with CFS first it was by a nuerologist after i had numerous tests as they thought i might had myasthenia gravis as none of the test showed that, they said CFS, then 4 years later diagnosed with Fibro by what i can see they have alot of symptons the same but the fatigue is so bad i couldnt even put one foot in front of the other had to picked up and taken home i collapsed in a shop once aswell since then i have learnt to rest when i need to and to pace myself hope this helps Take Care

I'm happy that we have this forum to comfort one another. But also due to the fact that we all describe the different issues we have. I have so much joint pain in my hands and feet. It becomes so unbearable. I often feel like going to the hospital because of the extreme pain. The hands and feet also swell up like crazy. I was always told that joint pain and swelling had NOTHING to do with fibromyalgia. I've had lots (too many) blood work done and xrays and nothing shoes up. I know that some of it is from erythromelalgia but at last I know I'm not alone with the joint pain. By the way the hands and feet with the excruciating pain has never been so bad so I'm coming to realise that fibromyalgia is in fact a progressive disease.

Grateful! Hugs to all!
