Avatar f tn Today I had to go to town and while driving I had the most sharp pain in the muscle part of my upper arms. Once I got home and took med they eased up quite a bit. Is this from fibromyalgia?
Avatar f tn I have pain in both my upper arms. I suffer from osteoarthritis and wondered if it is connected, I know it is in my spine. The pain is enough to disrupt my sleeping, and I sometimes find it difficult to pick up or hold a book to read because it's so painful. I have to sleep on my side and I'm not sure if it's connected to that. I have tried putting heat on and it doesn't seem to make any difference.
1664097 tn?1302990302 I have stinging pain (feels sort of like jellyfish stings) on my upper arms and shoulders that comes and goes. Sometimes there are very tiny itchy pimple type bumps and sometimes it's where the bumps used to be. It's painful and nothing seems to relieve it. The doctor's best guess is eczema. I feel like it's nerve related since I've also had nerve pain pop up in my feet. When should I consult a neurologist? Or should I just accept it's from the fibromyalgia?

Avatar n tn One month terrible lower back pain, other days stabbing pains in my legs and arms. Right now, for the past month or so I have terrible upper back pain. Is this Fibromyalgia again?

Avatar f tn The pain was everywhere upper back, legs, hips, upper arms and neck. It seems like this condition happens when I have not much pain and try to get everything I need to do in a couple days and then the next day I cannot move. On a good day if I sit for more than 20-30 minutes I stiffen up and takes a while to move again at all. My knees joints are very painful. My doctors has referred me to a rheumotolgist and suspects this could be my diagnosis.
267076 tn?1270674331 I've been having pains in my upper legs - front of thighs. Sometimes it hurts to walk. I also get a pain in my upper arms - in the muscles. My legs feel like I've been doing too many squats but I haven't. My arms feel like I've been exercising them too but I haven't. The muscles feel like they are in a knot. When I get this feeling, I sometimes get dizzy or spaced out - like I'm out of body (I know that sounds weird but it's the only way I can explain it).
Avatar f tn Hello-I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia about four years ago due to sudden onset of severe migraines that did not start as an adolescent. I was also having severe neck pain. I have been unable to take Lyrica due to side affects. I have fatigue, headaches, and joint pain often. I also have edema often in my feet and hands, but always thought I may just retain water. I never considered Lupus until the other day.
Avatar n tn pain in the upper arm, right in the middle. No shoulder or elbow pain. Left is worse than the right, if I bump my arm or if someone sqeezes my arm, even lightly it causes me more pain. My arms hurt all the the time, I wake up in pain. I am 19 yrs old and have been having this pain since I was about 11 yrs old. I have been to a Rheumatologist, Orthopedic, Muscle specialist and Surgeon. I have had MRIs, Xrays and an EEG...nothing! The pain is always there, please please help.

It literally appears overnight, but the cause may be a problem with the immune system, perhaps involving both genetic and environmental factors).

Avatar m tn Fibro is a lingering, severe, aching type of pain that lasts. If a person, for instance, comes up to you and grabs your upper arms and squeezes them, not only would that cause you pain, but that pain could last for several minutes after they let go of your arms. The researchers do know that people who have Fibro, do not hit the level of sleep that is needed for the muscles to repair themselves; it is during sleep that that process takes place.
520191 tn?1355635402 From your observations, you might loosely fit the criteria for Fibromyalgia Syndrome. Most FMS patients have what are called "multiple trigger points" where severe pain is caused by a small amount of pressure to the site. You can test this yourself by having you or one of your family members use a thumb or finger and placing enough pressure until you or they can see a "white line" under the nail. This should cause a tremendous amount of pain at the site.

(1/13/2009) For the past two weeks or so, I've been having back pain, mostly in the lower back, shoulders, below the shoulders and such.

Avatar m tn I'm having major pains in my upper, center part of my chest hurts to push off anything.. really to use my arms at first i thought maybe a muscle strain but its deeper then that! like a broke bone.
Avatar m tn The pain is always there and I cant be around people sometimes because I get so tight I feel as though I cant breath. I also start shaking some times my arms when the pain is bad and sweating alot under both my breasts and back area...Anyone have any of these symptoms and what to do about it..I have seen 2 doctors, a gastrologist and a rhemologist..Please help..Sometimes I feel like my insides do not have enough room and are expanding or somthing..
Avatar m tn I too was experiancing horrendous pain in my left lumbar spine and my upper left theigh, that pain has gotten better as time has passed. I still have problems with the nerve pain and I am still taking Gabapaentine 300mg which does help. Have you tried heat? Some people prefer ice, but I get great relief from heat. Also, my pain management doctor prescribed a TENS Unit for me, I usually get relief by using the TENS also.
Avatar m tn Hi Jemma116, I appreciate your response. The weird thing is, these symptoms come and go. Yesterday I had no tingling or forearm pain. I felt great. Now today, I have had intense tingling in both shoulders and arms along with the forearm pain. It's driving me crazy. I am waiting to see the results of my brain MRI and my spine x-rays.
Avatar f tn I have been having pain in the upper outer part of my thigh that runs from the hip to the back part of my knee and lower back pain on the same side. It feels like the tissue/muscle is where the pain is. But duren the night it seems the pain goes all the way to the bone. Plus there is pain when the area is touched-sensitivity. I want to scream because the pain is so bad. I notice that the pain begins when i sit longer then 2 minuts. or lay on that side too long.
Avatar f tn Hi I'm 20yrs old and worried about auto immune diseases. On my fathers side there is heaps a lupus and rhumatiod arthritis, as well as fibromyalgia, palindromic rheumatism and a few others similar! As I was growing up I always used to get reAllly bad 'growing pains' in my cales. Which Is normal, but now that I'm old I get them a fair bit at night, as well as what I can only describe as shin splints, which disable me from walking about once a month.
Avatar f tn Every joint in my body hurts when I have flare ups. My upper arms arm in constant pain and my lower arms and hands are in and out of tingling sinsations with or without pain. When I have a flare up I can barely move or do anything. The flare ups are becoming more and more and ecah time they start up a diffrent muscle is strongly effected than the rest. All my pain I am having is muscle pain. So far this pain has not been diagnosed. I just want to relax without pain.
