Abstract:
I report a case of 40-year-old lady who presented with
symptoms and signs suggestive of fibromyalgia but was
disregarded by attending doctor. She was infuriated and
lodged a complaint to Family Medicine Specialist (FMS)
whereby further assessment confirmed the diagnosis of
fibromyalgia and subsequently treated in primary care
setting.
