Send to a Friend

Why would her doctor lie to her about this?
My friend had been waking up to pain from her calves to her shoulders. She went to the doctor and said she thought “it might be fibromyalgia.” He said he “never heard of that” and suggested she receive a shot to her spine. They put her to sleep and she got the cortisone shot. She felt better for a week but now it’s back. What did he gain by lying to her? Or do you believe a GP exists who has never heard the term?
