Have you ever looked into the possibility of a link between sleep quality and fibromyalgia? From what I have read (it has been suggested to my father that some of his aches&pains symptoms could be this) I think there may be a strong connection along the lines that abnormal sleep pattens throughout the night may disrupt the body's restorative efforts for muscles, tendons and ligaments. I don't know what the latest research has been however.
