Hi there. Emotional and physical triggers can cause a flare in fibromyalgia symptoms. A flare is usually accompanied by constant pain and lethargy. You might find difficulty to sit, stand or lie for even some time. the triggers known are strong emotions like depression and anger or stress, too much exercise, beginning of an illness, cold,damp weather or extreme heat, any stress on body. That noisy neighbor could affect your health indirectly by causing anger or stress in you. Hope this helps.

Fibromyalgia is caused by infectious mycoplasmal bacteria. search www.immed.org and look for AI illnesses.

Past research has implied that depression was actually the true source of the fatigue and pain of fibromyalgia. But a new study has detected brain abnormalities in fibromyalgia patients. So while these new findings may not be a cure, they're sure to give peace of mind (and no small sense of vindication) to any fibromyalgia sufferer who's gotten a skeptical look from his physician.

Pain is often part of depression; there seems to be no rhyme or reason for it. It can come and go and sometimes changes. Your description sounds a bit like fibromyalgia, but I'm not a Dr. Have you tried pain meds...tylenol, ibuprofen, naprosyn, aspirin. If so, keep track of the pain, activity and meds to take to the doctor; it would be helpful in diagnosing you. Good luck.

) I currently have a diagnosis of Fibromyalgia, but have recently (in the past year or so) been experiencing muscular twitches in the hands (mostly Right), and occasionally in other body parts. Long-standing symptoms of fatigue, weakness, depression, are chronic to nearly constant. Parathyroid surgery in 2009 removed 2 adenomas, resulting in some relief of some symptoms but not all, and not lasting. I am currently awaiting results of a brain MRI, and blood work outside of the normal tests.

I may be thinking outside the box to find something to help relieve the symptoms I am dealing with but I think I will remain outside of this box! ;) Thank You.

Hello, all.... I've been posting around the MedHelp site for a bit now, but have just landed here in the Fibro forum. Before I post my question, I want to speak to LindaTX's question. I saw my rheumatologist, who has been practicing for probably 35+ years, just four days ago.

/or RA and when I told him my symptoms he said they were all due to fibromyalgia. It really made me mad that he wouldn't take them seriously and didn't even want to treat me for fibro. I'm going to press my family doctor to start a treatment regimen.

Try exercising regularly and have a vegetable based diet. Paranoia, anxiety all exacerbate the symptoms of fibromyalgia. Try doing breathing exercises.

Hello, I am sorry you are going through withdrawal symptoms. Many medications for Fibromyalgia, if not tapered properly will cause withdrawal symptoms if stopped abruptly. I would call your doctor immediately and report these symptoms as soon as possible. Have you called your doctor to report your symptoms as of yet?

I am only 25 and have all the symptoms of fibromyalgia, CFS and MCS. I am unable to get out of bed some days but because of my young age my doctor is not seeming to take me seriously. He tests my thyroid and iron levels and many other things, but has not sent me to a fibromyalgia specialists. Also I have not been able to get disability cheques, so I am on government assistance:(. Does anybody more experienced have any advice for me? This can be quite stressful.

My. my it seems as though you cannot take medication, period, to have so many reactions to everything the doc prescribes. When I first read your thread, I thought Lyrica is the answer. Sure enough, that's the first thing the doc prescribed. It's really too bad you can't tolerate it. I have Fibromyalgia, or let's just say I've had all of the symptoms. I asked for Lyrica (I'm a nurse) and lo, and behold, I'm a new person.

I am a 22 year old female and after doing a bit of research it sounds as though I have several symptoms that occur under fibromyalgia. I have had throughout my entire life a bizarre amount of muscle problems and pain. In recent times (last 5-6 months) I have had occasions where my body and skin hurts so much that even my shirt is hurting it. This isn't an everyday, or even every week, event but it has happened probably 5 or 6 time.

Hi, Fibromyalgia is collection of symptoms common to many other diseases also. Even though main symptoms of fibro.. are distributed body pain, especially in muscles and joints, many patients suffer from head ache and depression. However in such cases, it is important to make sure that head aches are not due to any other neurological problems, and that is why I advised you to consult a neurologist.
