Is Anyone Else’s Fibro Pain Worse When Leading Up To Their Period?
I feel like there is a link between my Fibro pain and my menstrual cycle.. as my period gets closer my pain gets worse, the dull cold ache I get in my pelvis legs and shoulders are excruciating as well as the tingling/buzzing heavy pain I get all over.
Thank you xx
Estrogen and progesterone are anti-inflammatory to the nervous system. And they drop to their lowest levels when the cycle starts. Hence, the increase of symptoms. I get it as well.
I experienced similar symptoms and ended up with a hysterectomy at 28. It was significantly better afterwards.
I had awful pain before/during my periods.. for many years..
I had a hysterectomy (mostly) for that reason hugs to you..
I get this aswell. Now I dread my periods as for weeks up to and during the pain in horrendous, even moving my bowels when on periods, the stomach pain is excruciating.
YES. Though I'm post-menopausal now it was hell before then at least once a month
Anyone Else Ever Feel Guilty Even When Talking To Other Fibro Patients?
