I'm not one of those hypochondriacs who have every "disorder" known to man, but curiously, do any of you know of an association between APS and fibromyalgia?

Not sure if they are, I don't believe so. I have APS. A few years back I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia by the Rheumatologist. It lasted for awhile and I fought it off with certain vitamins, diet & exercise and it hasn't come back since! I had every test run known to man and they didn't find a single thing wrong, however, the Rheum. said it was Fibro. I know I wanted to die, but was determined to beat it and I did. I don't take any meds. or anything for the APS and was told not to take anything.

I was wondering the same thing myself. I have both conditions, and two other autoimmune conditions as well. It seems I was diagnosed with one, and that wasn't enough, but I have to be diagnosed with three more conditions.

Lupus, antiphospholipid and psoriasis, among many other conditions are all auto-immune. I'm a massage therapist and I've seen many fibro- patients. They seem to all have SOME kind of an auto-immune condition. I believe they are very much linked. I have APS and psoriasis. My mom has fibro and psoriasis.
