Hi reflections my GP was 98% sure I had Fibro but referred me to the Rheumatologist to be sure when I saw the Rheumatologist he found that all my tenderpoints to be acute so he said I had severe Fibromyalgia and 15 mths after this I was diagnosed with M.E.

It is often not well done, which is partly why it was dropped from the 2010 Diagnostic Criteria for primary care professionals (e.g. GPs) to use.
