Summary
Birch 33128, who was diagnosed at 17 with amplified musculoskeletal pain syndrome, a label their doctors used for fibromyalgia in under-18s, doubted the diagnosis by age 20. Fatigue was their worst symptom and they got sore easily from exercise or walking and standing for long periods. Physical therapy soon after diagnosis helped some with their pain. They wondered whether CFS fitted their symptoms better.
