Guest guest Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 Yes, several of us here have both lupus and fibromyalgia. I have had lupus since a teen. I didn’t get fibromyalgia until about 8 years ago after I had to undergo cancer treatment. Fibro is caused by genetics mixed with a severe mental or physical strain.

I've been reading my books on Lupus and Invisible Chronic Illnesses, and I have a question for y'all: does anyone here have both lupus and fibro? I've been readin about the symptoms and I have several - even the less common symptoms. Does anyone know if it's possible to have both at the same time? I think once I get diagnosed again w/ Lupus, I'll ask about the fm - b/c I don't know if the doc will pick that up or not. Mandi Express yourself with over 8,000 FREE Email Smileys - click here!
