In part, yes, but there are actually well-defined criteria for fibromyalgia[0]

sigh, I agree. In my (unfortunately vast) experience with NHS doctors, it seems the majority have never had any training or even read a paper since they became doctors, and that they are trained to diagnose the obvious and write everyone else as a nutjob.

For example NHS endocrinologists mainly know about diabetes (even if somewhat outdated) and thyroid cancer - anything else, forget about it, you need to go private and see a specialist that doesn't have tunnel vision.
