forgot to add that you can get the most info on your question if you look in top right hand corner titled "Health Pages".

That will certainly give you LOTS of info.

Hello..
  I do not think that an MRI is used or can be used in the detection of fibro.
A rheumatologist is a great start and they will rule out several things through blood work and a detailed history as well as the pressure point test.

Have you already been dx'd w/ fibro?
