Never tested for lymes .
Unsure
I was diagnosed with Fibromyalia with no blood tests. They pressed the pressure points and counted how many times I said ow. I actually went to the GP with problems with my knee. Which later turned out to be a muscle problem, not Fibro related. I was also told My Tenosyvitis was Fibro. I can't say I am impressed with that GP.
I really do not know? At the time it was not something that I had thought of? I already had a diagnosis of Osteoarthritis and I presumed my pain was as a result of this until I started getting it in places that I would not usually have. Very good poll, thank you
