A member asked:
I feel achy and can't go back to sleep. could this be fibromyalgia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most likely not: There are specific criteria to be met to say it is fibromyalgia. A rheumatologist can help you with this. Achiness alone with sleep difficulty is not enough to make the criteria.
