Yes! Widespread pain, including joint pain and pain in the hips and thighs, is a very common symptom of fibromyalgia. Many MyFibroTeam members experience this type of pain, which can feel like a "headache all over your body."

Common pain areas include:
• Joints
• Back
• Hips
• Thighs
• Legs
• Arms On particularly difficult days, you may notice:
• Difficulty sitting or standing straight
• Slower walking pace
• Stiffness, especially in the morning
• Hunched shoulders
• Limited knee mobility

Remember that just because others can't always see your pain doesn't mean it isn't real. Many members find using heat pads or TENS machines helpful for managing these symptoms.
