My wife suffers from fibromyalgia and I would like to find someone who specializes in fibro to have her evaluated and treated. We live in Dover, Delaware but are willing to travel. Who can we contact and how can we set up an appointment?

My wife has been diagnosed with Polymyalgia and Fibromyalgia (high sed. rate, trigger points, pain in arms, legs, groin & etc.) She has been on prednisone for apprx. 9 mo. and methotrexate for 6 mo, now up to 15 mg. She has never been able to get below 15 mg. prednisone along with MTX without huge pains. Below 12 mg. pred. her sed. rate goes up. Now the bicep area of one of her arms is swollen with red splotches apprx. 5 places that have kinda combined into one red area about the size of a teacup, it looks like it has a deep bleeding in it. She says at times it feels as though the meat is being pulled from the bone. It has a continual dull toothache like ache in it. Is this commom to PMR/FMS? MTX makes her nauseous and weak for about four days, but she continues to take it and hope.

My wife was recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Any recommendations for a good specialist in the Baltimore/MD/DC/Virginia area? We cannot travel to MI to see the specialist who you always refer people to.
