No "fibromyalgia flu " it basically means someone with fibromyalgia that has consistent flu like symptoms that can be similar to the flares.

Hope you mean Fibromyalgia Flare not Flu?

Unfortunately a lot of symptoms of Fibromyalgia can be similar to the Flu.

The difference between Fibromyalgia and the Flu is that the Flu Symptoms will eventually go away! But unfortunately Fibromyalgia symptoms Won't.
