can we develop fibromyalgia with this blood disease

[Grendall]

Hi all and a happy new year…

I just wanted to get any feed back from anyone that may have found out or been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia after having their MPN for a while?

If so what symptoms did you get and were you referred to your own GP or your Hematologist for them to confirm?

I have ET CalR

I do not have fibromyalgia, but I don’t see why you couldn’t have it as well. It is usually a combination of things like unexplained pain, muscle aches, and depression. And really the best person to truly diagnose you is a rheumatologist. My husband worked in rheumatology for over 5 years before changing specialties. He dealt with this daily. There are certain criteria that need to be met. I would see a rheumatologist and let them work you up if you are concerned. Happy New Year!!!
