My doctor diagnosed me with fibromyalgia this year. I am just wondering if anyone else has been pregnant with Fibromyalgia . I am slightly nervous because I am going to need to continue to work when I am pregnant. I am a massage therapist

I do not , but i have MS. i assume you are talking about the profound fatigue involved? that is an issue with MS too.

i don't find it much worse than when i am not pg (and my MS meds dont do anything for my fatigue, so my being off meds doesnt come into play)

If fibro is a auto immune disease, perhaps you will find it goes into remission or is milder when PG, like MS is.

HUGS and good luck!!
