Hi,
The difficulty in your case is related to the other disease you already are diagnosed with - fibromyalgia. That makes it difficult to believe that you have Dercums disease.
However, if you are not satisfied with your current doctor; you can choose another one for confirmation.
Here, we cannot really give a satisfactory diagnosis as we do not have your clinical data.
Hope it helped!
