As my pain increased I kept seeing doctors trying to find out what was wrong - most thought it was nothing - just in my head and would I like anti-depression meds. I heard of a new rheumatologist in town and quickly saw him. He was much more compassionate and with new medical treatments he had just studied at John Hopkins - he believed me and ran many tests. Since he knew what he was looking for, he was able to diagnose the fibromyalgia and chronic pain AND prescribed meds that helped me. I also take two multi- vitamins and calcium w/d each day. Good luck .
