    What is the trigger point test?

    I can't find the post again, but I read somewhere on one of these boards something about a trigger point test to diagnose fibromyalgia . My doctor said I have fibromyalgia, but she did not perform any test specifically to make her diagnosis. I got the impression she was labeling it...
