I'm not a doctor, and not an expert on either. However, eight months ago I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. I found that by avoiding gluten, my fibromyalgia conditions were eased. Three days ago I was diagnosed with Ceoliac Disease. My doctor explained that while it is unclear whether or not one causes the other, the two are highly correlated. The underlying causes of Fibromyalgia are unknown--it should be viewed more as a syndrome, that is, a collection of symptoms.

Because of the similarity of symptoms, fibromyalgia and CFS are considered to be overlapping syndromes
