Fibromyalgia is not fake. Its a diagnosis of exclusion. Meaning the doctors don’t know whats wrong so they call it fibromyalgia.

Not to say there aren’t people who are faking disability.

It’s a made up disorder.

I have a tremor, it's getting worse and affects my voice. The doc doesn't know what it is so he pronounced it a, "familial tremor". No one in my immediate or extended family has ever had it. Never mind, it's a familial tremor.

I think he thought he was consoling me by telling me that Katharine Hepburn had it too.
