    I am actually writing to ask a question. Trying to find out if fibromyalgia sufferers have pain internally. I have been diagnosed with it, and have the usual pain in joints and muscles, but in the past year I have begun to have serious pain in the intestines and abdominal area. I have been through all the tests and nothing was found. I think the gastroenterologist is ready to tell me it’s all in my head. I don’t know where to turn next and just need to know if this is a place where others experience pain. Thank you.
