Can pain caused by fibromyalgia occur on just one side of my body?

My answer is no: I believe fibromyalgia would tend to cause pain on both sides of the body.

No: By definition, fibromyalgia is a condition in which there is pain on both sides of the body both above and below the waist. Pain on one side of the body is likely something else.
