Have you heard of Fibromyalgia?

I've had fibro for about twenty years, and frankly, you didn't list a single symptom that has anything to do with it. It sounds as if your doctors don't know what they're talking about. I do hope you get help for your problems because they sound much more serious than fibro.

.

what she said. the numb fingers suggests something neurological. might just be a (chronic, recurring) pinched nerve prob, might be something much more serious.

ra diagnosis is pretty uncomplicated and definitive.

i'd advise you make sure you have a competent doc who can figure out how to point you to the relevant specialists.

soon.

well there is a lot more symptoms that i have that are on the list. in fact i can go thro the pages about fibro and and pretty much check most of them off as saying yup, got that one. I was trying not to write a book.

but i can add lots of migrains irritable bowl syndrom, sensativiity to medications. muscle

twicting and spasms, wide spread muscle pain. and spending anytime doing things that are repetitive causes pain or numbness. been to rhuematogists. neurolgiests, and so on. from that point on this isnt something i just found out about yesterday this is something I was told I had 5 years ago and have been to meny for second opinions.

each case is never the same as and very so much from one to anouther anouther and symtoms are so wide spread, and thats why they have a hard time detecting it.

and im not saying its linked to my blood presure, but the stress it caused on my body was. you may not have understood about them telling me it was pinched nerves my point was it wasnt pinched nerves or causing them,my point was they didnt want to take the time to look for real answers. id go in with limbs hurting so bad, i nearly felt as if I broke something, or torn muscles after doing nothing at all. to cause such pain.

First off the first syptom of fibro is cronic pain. mentioned. I ment to upload this picture before oops did i mention brain fog forgot.

hopefully the photo uploaded.

now as far as back pain it falls right in line with these pretty little red marks on the lower back. that shows the fibro presure points.

my legg pain often burning pain that extended down from my thigh to about the knees. pretty much inline with the lower set of red dots. now the pinched nerves they always tryed to tell me I was having, normally in my shoulders extending down my arms. about matching up with the pretty little dots that go from the bottom of your neck to the ones reaching around your elbows.

this chart can be found on almost any fibro web site.

looks as if the intire picture isnt showing up, but i think it makes my point

sunspot ty for the links and not dubting that i know what im talking about but trying to help,

the main thing i was trying to do was bring awarness

to anyone that may have been going thro cronic pain for years with no answers, figuring maybe they would look into it with there doctors and see if that may or not be there problem, after all, theres a lot of people out there that have never heard of it enless they have it or have a friend with it, and its linked to so meny other disorders that its often missed.

lol darn internet connection it posted twice ignore this just trying to get ride of the duplicate
