Yes it does, it generally bothers every part of your body, sadly ...

My hands hurt most of the time. It makes it so hard to do all my charting at work.

I've had pain and swelling in my middle finger. Thought it may have been broken but after an x-ray nothing was "wrong". Fibro at its best.

yes i have terrible trouble with my hands and wrists due to it and on bad days i cant even do the simplist of things like peeling potatoes as i cant hold either the potato or knife :-( x
