Yes, that's exactly what it feels like when something touches me. It's worse on my uppers arms and my thighs, I wears soft materials when I can and people in my left know not to touch me.

Yes, my armpits are super tender (connected to your pectorals muscles usually) and I have a big lump in each armpit where my muscles have tightened so much and just won't release for years. It all sucks. Fibro makes you feel like you have other serious health issues and by serious I mean fatal, but doctor's are supposed to rule out all health problems throughout testing that would make sense and then can make the diagnosis of fibro. I have had cardiac testing, ms testing, scans, X-rays, spinal taps, bloodwork, vitamin checks, you name it and everything came back fine which concluded the diagnosis and firmly placed fibro on me years ago. I hope you can get all the testing and ruling out done so your doctor can treat you correctly. Gentle Hugs

Yes my pain in constant and yes i have those places and more. Sounds like fibro for sure

Welcome to our world! It definitely sounds like fibro to me... yes, the pain can be continuous or I can wake up one day, and I don’t hurt.. isn’t it crazy?! And the rib pain, ouch!!! I usually have that most days but my heating pad helps along with pain meds..

Hi welcome.
yes my body feels very tender on some days and the pain for me is mostly in my legs and arms but i have found by speaking and seeing different articles that people who have fobro are all different.
You need to find your way of coping.
Also some days i can concur the world and some days i am so bad i have to stay in bed.
Take each day ata time and stay strong x
