What Signs Confirm The Presence Of Parkinson S?

Why is fibromyalgia so difficult to diagnose? I have been told that it is all in my head. I just feel like there is no help for us. Just throw another medication at me. Was recently hospitalized with a severe allergic reaction to a new prescription for parkinsons, but have never been told that I have parkinsons

yes it is tough to diagnose Fibromyalgia indeed, since, unlike other diseases like Diabetes, Hypertension and heart disease there are not many tests to confirm this disease
it is more by exclusion of other diseases and too much is subjective
Parkinsonism has a few minimum criteria-- rigidity and tremers and a typical facial look, gait and other simple tests-- not at all difficult to diagnose if seen by a good physician
