Pins and needles

Submitted by Sam66 on Fri, 03/31/2017 - 17:56
We all know that Fibro has many weird symptoms and associated conditions, that some may experience, besides the widespread pain. I was just wondering if anyone else sometime experience pins and needles when showering. I experience it sometimes but not all the time. How about random pain like you have cut yourself in an area but nothing happened to explain it?

Husband looking for help understanding

I need some help with my wife's fibromyalgia. I have no idea how to deal with her chronic pain. I don't understand what it feels like to have fibromyalgia and its sad. I hate hearing that she is hurting all the time. I get she is hurting but to hear it everyday day multiple times is destroying us. I don't want to sound selfish but we cant even be intimate anymore.

Soma is very bad for fibromyalgia

Soma is a combination drug and parts of the properties it has are those of anesthesia and have actions based the same as opiates. They are very dangerous for the central nervous system and will make your fibromyalgia symptoms worse in the long run. Basically heroin in theory would be safer for use.

Hi everyone!

im Emmy I'm a 29 year old from Australia  and I have been recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I have had pain for the last 15 years but have a lot of other health issues (Type 1 diabetes, endometriosis, PCOS, migraines, hypothyroidism, hypersomnia, chronic sinusitis and IBS are the main ones)that the pain was always blamed on. I find it hard to talk about to others because they just don't understand. Often they say I'm to young for that many issues or I don't look sick. So I'm glad I found this site!
