    Interesting discussion.  Mine started when I left low altitude hot town and moved to high altitude cooler snowy winter town.  I was really quite healthy, walking long distances and playing tennis, but I began to notice that going upstairs made my leg muscles burn and tennis made my lower back feel like a band of pain plus before I even knew about pressure points, I noticed how much it hurt when the cat walked on certain areas of my body!  the fibro took full effect when my hub and I moved to a new apartment, all the lifting and packing, etc and one day just collapsed on the floor.

    However my therapist thinks I may have begun my bodywise troubles long long ago before age of 6 when a pedophile uncle abused me several times.  The therapist finds that a lot of people with childhood trauma develop inflammatory diseases later in life.
