Answer: Hi Dawn -- I believe fibromyalgia is Lyme disease, a bacterial infection that inflames our nerves and soft tissues. Please go to www.lymenet.org/FlashDiscussion/MedicalQuestions and read there. You can post there and people will respond. They can also help you find a doctor to test and treat you. There are other parents there too with whom you can discuss your situation. =
