183933 tn?1290216962 So my question is this. What does the pain feel like? Does a gluten free diet really help? I just started on one for some of my own auto-immune diseases, and so far, so good!
638005 tn?1231520088 Well if you want to know how i feel with my fibromyalgia, i feel at times like i have been run over by a train and lived. Headaches, nausea, insomnia, joint pain all over my body that aches like i am dying, joint stiffness, depression, sensitive to cold weather and rain, burning sensations in my muscles, foggy memory, dizziness, muscle pain, fatigue and maybe more. I am in constant pain 24/7 and was bed ridden last year for 7 months and could not even walk from the pain.
Avatar n tn I really don't know where to post this, but here it goes....Since 2009 I've been on narcotics for severe back pain because a MRI found that I had two bulging disks. I had the MRI repeated because I started having nerve pain in my left leg, but then it went away. Anyways it was discovered that my disks aren't bad enough to cause my pain.
757527 tn?1237893063 If I do a repetitive motion too many times, I will feel physically nauseous and that body part will tire quickly. Muscles feel itchy, hot and burning sometimes. Sometimes I will get painful ice pick feelings in my toes and hands.
Avatar f tn Hey guys, I'm feeling really down right now, this whole anxiety thing has me has me on the verge of tears quite frequently. I feel like this is the only place that has people who are willing to listen and who understand me. Just a quick update for those who know of my situation...I went to an internists doctor 3 hours away and she felt all of the joint popping and ordered me to get X-rays and more blood tests.
Avatar f tn Currently I am dealing with pain in my left leg that runs from hip to ankle with random variations of pain levels. It will change from one minute to the next but doesn't seem to want to fully go away ( It started 3 days ago). The pain can be described as if my bones are going to snap. Nothing seems to help eleviate the pain and the slightest vibration of somebody walking past me can severely increase the pain. Is this part of FM and what can I do to get it to stop if anything?

Avatar f tn t suffer with the severe all over body pain during the day and waking me at night like I used to. I still have pain but it is less severe and improvement is happening just slowly. There are 100's of bacteria that can be causing your condition. If you want to check into lyme I would make sure the doctor is a lyme specialist. If you need help finding one let me know. Chronic lyme is devastating to the body. We know this first hand.
Avatar f tn I had previously visited my GP about weakness in the right side and pain in my right hip, she referred me to a Rheumatologist querying Fibromyalgia, due to the pain in my hip lasting 5 months. I was awaiting a referral.
Avatar f tn Have pain all over,always tierd,I don't sleep. I don't feel like it's just the disc problem. Can you have both Fibromyalgia and herniated discs problem at same time?
Avatar f tn I feel your pain. I am living a whole different life because of te pain in my legs feet arms and hands, I pray we all get some relief....

Avatar f tn Hello, I'm new to this forum. I was just wondering if anyone else's pain gets worse throughout day. On work days I wake up extremely fatigued but my pain is not bad and I don't feel to stiff . But pain gets really bad a couple hours after waking or as day goes on. Also as day goes on I sometimes feel neausiated . Then by evening my thighs burn and tingle. Headache also gets worse by evening . If I go to a movie I feel very stiff after sitting for a couple hours . Can anyone Relate?
Avatar f tn 30am alarm reminder to SIDDOWN, and if it feels ok, i carry on, and if i feel like shite i stop. also btw i have cut out dairy - it helps w reducing the inflammation. doesn't tame the excruciating fatigue tho. agree w cutting down sugar too - all of it if you possibly can; it can starve out a bad gutbacteria that produces heII wastes that make us sluggish. it's a case of just picking one or two things to be done that day.
Monster ### FIBROMYALGIA SYMPTOMS Pain — The primary symptom of fibromyalgia is widespread (diffuse), chronic, and persistent pain. The pain may be described as a deep muscular aching, soreness, stiffness, burning, or throbbing. Patients may also feel numbness, tingling, or unusual “crawling” sensations in the arms and legs.
Avatar f tn t really sound much like fibromyalgia pain - that pain is typically widespread and not just in one area (although certain areas can feel worse at times than other areas). It also usually affects both sides of the body pretty equally. It sounds more like maybe a shoulder injury (have you fallen or stretched your shoulder at all? heavy lifting?) I could also be a pleuritic type pain (inflammation of the area around the lungs).
690327 tn?1255354511 Hi, I know how you feel. When I turned 50, it seems like I fell apart. I used to be so active, in good shape, and happy. I got arthritis, carpal tunnel, fibro, DDD and herniated discs in my neck, overweight, high cholesterol and BP--you name it, it seems like I got it. I hate the fibro the most. Very painful.
Avatar f tn I remember trying to explain what it felt like to be in such horrific pain. I would explain that this must be what it was like for someone who had been the real-life, literal victim of physical torture. Someone who, during medieval times had been subjected to having their legs pulled until the bones were out of the socket.
Avatar m tn Its happening right now. It feels like every single letter I type is being applified and its making me like panicy for no reason. It feels very surreal. I rarely get this, but i started when I was a child during a waking nightmare.
Avatar f tn then when I bring the prescription to the pharmacy, they make you feel like an addict or a criminal, I am in so much pain on a daily basis, and I do not know what other doctor to go to see. Iam so frustrated that I have a medical problem and can not get the medicine to help me. What type of doctor do you see?
Avatar f tn the last few days things seem to have got worse-it is difficult to walk my two dogs.my feet are painful-like spasms of pain which i have read is linked to fibro.and the same in my hands.arthritis is spreading too. i am due to see a gynaecologist again this month and maybe i can get some joy from him.if not i will see my gp again and i can feel lumps in my abdomen i also have littlw appetite never feel hungry.
665881 tn?1248926997 I have severe fibromyalgia with osteoporosis, degenerative disk disease and severe scoliosis, if you were to take a rubber band and twist it around your fingertip, where the fingernail starts, and keep twisting until it is so tight the end of your finger turns purple and then touch your finertip together with your thumb, that is the feeling of fibromyalgia and I have it all over my body with it being the worst at the neck and down the outside of my legs and my back, I cannot wear clothes with ma
Avatar f tn I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia. But also my doctor said that my vitamin D level was low so she put me on 50,000 units of it. I was wondering could my vitamin D level being low have anything to do with my fatigue and flu-like feeling? What are the usual symptoms of vitamin D level being low????
710094 tn?1229308706 Also try to avoid wheat completely for few days and see it helps (wheat gluten allergy) , Take lots of rest , I am taking cymbalta and it has helped me with pain and brain function . Never loose hope , we are in this together , you will feel better soon . I was reading reviews of a product called IMMUNE26 made from egg powder . It boosts your immune system and has helped many with chronic fatigue and fibro pain . Do a google search . Please try the product .
Avatar n tn I constanly feel off balance and drop things, at times I feel like I am draging my legs. I am doing yoga,stretching excerises and masages,this helps the pain. The fatigue is almost unbearable. I am not sleeping but about 4 hours. I have no ideal what could be wrong with me,my energy level has always been extremely high, I can hardly make it up to my 2nd floor, this is starting to be depressing.
