I have a few questions for people with fibromyalgia!!

Hello everyone!! <3 So, I like to write characters!! Right now i'm working on one that has fibromyalgia, and i want to keep it as realistic and inoffensive as possible, so i want to gather different perspectives of actual people with this condition!! Some of these questions are going to be a bit personal, so you can skip over them if they make you uncomfortable!! Also, if anyone has any books/articles/documentaries/shows they can recommend I check out to learn more, please let me know! Sorry in advance if any of my questions are rude/ignorant

  1. How would you describe the pain?
  2. What are some things it prevents you from doing? Are there better days where you can do those things?
  3. How difficult was it to get a diagnosis? Did it take days, months, years? Did you have to switch doctors? Did you have to fly to another country to get better help?
  4. Are there types of clothing/shoes/accessories you have to avoid?
  5. Is the pain constant? Are there some times where it's not there or times where you can ignore it?
  6. How did your experience with it start out? Like, did you just randomly wake up in pain everywhere? Did it start as small pain somewhere that spread/escalated over time?
  7. Were there any misdiagnosises before you found out it was fibromyalgia? What were they?
  8. Are there days where it goes into remission? How often? And did you get them a lot at first then less overtime or vice versa??
  9. Are there exercises that help?
  10. Did you need physical therapy?
  11. Are there days where it gets worse? If so, how often? How would you describe them? Just how bad do they get?
  12. Is it something that people notice about you or is it something people are shocked to hear when they find out?
  13. What are some medications that help? How often do you take them? What's the dosage? Right now I have my character on Tramadol and pregabalin but I'm not a doctor or a med student so other than a few google searches i have almost no idea what they actually do or if they can even go together so i might have to change it
  14. What makes the pain worse?
  15. What do you think caused it?
  16. I read somewhere that people with fibromyalgia feel pain for longer than people without it do, like for example if someone with fibromyalgia stubbed their toe or bumped their head, they'll feel it for longer than someone without, is that true?
  17. What are some tests that had to be run to get to the conclusion that you have fibromyalgia?
  18. What are some treatments you had and what were the outcomes?
  19. Did you need any surgeries?
  20. How old were you when you discovered you had it? Can teenagers get it?

That's all!! If there's anything else you feel i should know, pls tell me!! Thanks a bunch to anyone who read through this :3
