Does Anyone Have What I Call A "piggyback " Effect, When Your Fibro Is Flared Because Of Another Illness?
Does Anyone Have What I Call A "piggyback " Effect, When Your Fibro Is Flared Because Of Another Illness?
In addition to the fibromyalgia, I have spinal stenosis with complications and Abdominal Migraines. When I experience a crisis of one of my illnesses, it usually makes my other illnesses flare as well.
Oh HELL YES!!!😗 Whenever I get a bacterial infection, OMG, feels as though none of my medications work!!! The PAINS!!😞😨 I suffer from daily chronic migraines (not ur typical type), CFS, depression, anxiety, osteo & degenerative arthritis, etc... By 2nd day, that's when I know I have infection & see Dr. that day for antibiotic s. Oh my dear, my heart goes out to you. Please try to stay WELL OK? Gentle hugs (((((()))))))
Wow, I'm sorry! Yes, we all have our health issues associated or "PIGGY BACKED" with FM. It doesn't seem fair does it? Sometimes good days, sometimes worse. Prayers sent ur way plus ((((((())))))).
Cannot wait to read ur post. U used initials of diagnosis's I am unfamiliar with. Wow, I am saddened to hear just of the diagnosis's I am familiar with AND YOU HAVE MORE-! OMG! Keep ur chin up. Love hearing from you & others and support we all get & advice. Yes, we live w/this and it's our bodies. We know it better than them, Darn DR'S!! Don't get me started lol. Think we've all have our nightmares regd our diagnosis plus+++++.. Thanks for the big. Right back @ u !🌹😘
Thank you for asking. Abdominal Migraines are as extreme as my fibro but took much longer to diagnose and I will elaborate more when I actually write my profile story.
Abdominal Migraines are exactly what the diagnosis states: Migraine in the abdomen, but more specifically the pain is located dead center of the stomach itself. I do suffer from IBS, ARD, GERD as well as Cyclic Nausea/Vomiting Syndrome, which can often exhasberate my fibro and spinal stenosis,etc.
When I was diagnosed by a Neurologist, he explained how like fibromyalgia I would have to help educate other's. Including Medical Professionals at every level and he was correct. If you would like a book reference definition you can Google it he said. I hope my explanation was helpful and again I thank you and I send warming gentle hugs.
Yes, I can always tell if I have a cold coming on because of my fibro pain and its a different kind of fibro pain
