Fibromyalgia and RH negative blood group

Hi

I'm interested to know if there are many FMS sufferers who have a RH Neg blood type.  I have seen quite a few people on forums who have FMS and are also RH Neg.  Does anyone know if there is a connection?  I would be very interested to find out.

I have been diagnosed with FMS and also have a RH Neg blood type.

I have RH negative blood (O-) and have been diagnosed with FMS, anxiety, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, nerve damage in neck,adult acne, migraines. I have severe back pain with multiple big knots that don't seem to ever go away. The first massage I had at 16 my physical therapist stated I had bigger and way more knots in my back then older adults she has seen with years of back problems. I have a terrible immune system as I am always sick, even with vitamin supplements and other preventatives. My memory is poor. I have a difficult time trying to keep up, my body feels old and tired. I feel as though I'm getting worse and it's all throughout my body as everything hurts, breaks out or takes forever to heal. I am 35, I have birthed 4 children, getting the RH shot with each of them. I have seen many doctors and tried many medicines and/or treatments. I have received many answers but none seem to work for me.
