Hi: I have fibromyalgia and I am having problems getting my long term disability from insurance through my employment. My lawyer sent me for a physical assessment. the results are: I am not able to sit for more than 10 minutes but yet I am suppose to be able to return to work for 2 hours a day and work my way up to full time. Does this make sense to anyone? Sure doesn't to me.

While I was beeing assessed, on the day, my heart rate was 130 and the therapist made me stop and ended the test. I told him that I was in a lot of pain. Does pain make your heart rate go up?

Help.
