Hi All. I joined last week because I suspected I may have Fibromyalgia. I got some good advice, but then to my surprise developed red paches on my trunk, which turned out to be Shingles!! Mystery solved!! Anyway, I shall be leaving the site now, as I am here under false pretences!! Bye everyone!!

So pleased you don't have the dreaded fibro but don't envy the shingles as I have had it three times and it certainly isn't a walk in the park. Wishing you a speedy recovery.x
