Fibro, RH- and RhoGam connection??

Fibro, RH- and RhoGam connection??

I am curious how many people are RH-, received RhoGam injection after the birth of their 1st childs birth and now has Fibromyalgia.
In the 1980's, RhoGam had mercury in it. Actually, mercury was in many immunizations (used as a preservative), but have been (supposedly) recently removed from products.  I cannot get much information on this subject. I have found that when given RhoGam DURING pregnancy has shown a higher chance of Austism and ADD/ADHD in the infant, but what are the long term affects in the mother??
If ANYONE has information regarding the correlation between Fibro and RhoGam...PLEASE contact me.  Thank you.

Hi there. The possible causes of fibromyalgia are physical injuries, emotional trauma, viral infections as if Epstein Barr may trigger it. Fibromyalgia is not a disease but rather a chronic pain condition brought on by several abnormal body responses to stress. Areas in brain responsible for pain react differently in fibromyalgia patients than the same areas in healthy people.  The rhogam shot contains mercury known to cause autism in children. There seem to be no other study to confirm or suggest the association of rhogham and fibromyalgia. Hope this helps. Take care.
