My girlfriend of three years was recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia/chronic...

I was diagnosed with Fibro last year. Since then, every time I have a fibro flare, my neck and shoulders swell up like I've been stung by a bee! It drastically decreases my mobility in my arms. I usually can't lift them above shoulder height.
And my neck looks like I have a hunchback.
