A close look at some of the IOM provisional panel nominees

Jennie's comment to IOM http://www.occupycfs.com/2013/12/19/my-feedback-to-the-institute-of-medicine/

I am searching for disease that were defined by experts. I thought I saw someone posting about that but, can't find it. Help?

EDS:
thanks to WillowJ
The Beighton criteria for Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, joint hypermobility type (current version) was written by 5 EDS specialists (geneticists) and 2 disease orgs

The other criteria, the Brighton criteria (not a typo, the two definitions are called Beighton and Brighton), was written by three rheumatologists (current version). These are cited by the US Army Health Clinic in Germany

Fibromyalgia:
thanks to WillowJ
"The two criteria for fibromyalgia were written by 1) three doctors and 2) ten doctors and the professional college (American College of Rheumatology)."

Thank you @justinreilly - great help for me!
