Guest guest Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 Hi Angie, According to my fibromyalgia book, a person has to have 11 of 14 tender points on the body. Wide spread pain is common and muscles can be very tender at times. Sometimes mine hurt to move them. I don't have RA but I have had FM for over 10 years and am familiar with it. Good luck with your appt tomorrow.
