A member asked:

Can the arm pain/shoulder/back mainly in left elbow but does hurt elsewhere be fibromyalgia?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

More widespread : Not in isolation. Fibromyalgia is characterized by multiple tender points, widespread deep muscle pain, fatigue, and depression. There are tender points scattered over the neck, back, chest, elbows, hips, buttocks, and knees. See your doctor to clarify.
