Can a infection or virus cause fibromyalgia to set up?

Yes they are very supportive of me why would you even want to know that?

Hi ! How are your parent's dealing with your condition ? Are they supportive of you ?

The reason that I was wondering is I've always had the symptoms of fibromyalgia. But about 5 months ago I developed Chronic sinunitus. After about 2 months the sinunitus cleared up. To make sure of it I had my doctor run a CT scan and she said everything looks fine. But after the sinunitus cleared up I started having worse symptoms of fatigue, muscle aching, soarness, exaustion, and headaches. When I went back to doctors they started saying I was deppressed. I kept telling them that my symptoms ARE REAL!!
Finally I went to a doctor in lexington and he did the pressure point test and he indeed said that I do have fibromyalgia and that me getting sinunitus caused it to set up worse.

Absolutely.  Bacteria and or viruses are a couple of the probable causes of CFS and FMS according to much of the info I have read.  Lyme disease in particular is often misdiagnosed as FMS/CFS.
