Three years ago I got hit by a car walking home from school. Thankfully I didn’t break anything except my nose. I never had joint paint until after that. I had IBS symptoms before but the tiredness, and joint pain started after. Been to so many specialists and they can’t seem to find a reason so they’ve diagnosed fibo but probably because they can’t find anything else.

It’s very common for people to develop FM after physical trauma such as a car accident. I think mine started after slipping on ice a few years ago, but I don’t know for sure.

Absolutely fibro gets worse after a trauma.

My fibro started after being hit by a foul ball and knocked out at a major league baseball game. I had a concussion and lots of facial stitches and damage to my cervical spine. It was shortly after that then all my problems started.
