who also has fibromyalgia and then lupus?

[Cazpurple]

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2009 and then lupus last year. I think it was harder to get the diagnosis because a lot of syptoms overlap.

Hiya! I got the diagnosis of lupus as one as my first diagnosis then secondary fibro about a year and a bit ago 💜

[DogHospiceMom]

fibromyalgia was the first autoimmune disease I was diagnosed with. I also ha chronic fatigue. Years later I was diagnosed with Sjogrens, Lupus and MTHFR.

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia before lupus by my rheumatologist, although I always knew it was only part my story.
