If you have had shingles in the past can this be a trigger for fibro.
I have not been diagnosed at the moment but I'm showing all the symptoms. X
I had chicken pox as a kid and shingles twice as an adult. I got the Shigrex Vaccine, it is not a live virus and shouldn’t cause shingles, though it has swollen glands and joint pain. At the time I go… read more
I was diagnosed with this after EMG nerve conduction test.
Has anyone been diagnosed with this or have heard of it?
My primary care dr has never heard of it?
I have never heard of it. Googled and found that my autonomic dysfunction may be related to fibromyalgia. Thanks for sharing.
I had arthritis pain seen I was 29 yrs old and was just told that I have fibro this year. My joints and muscles get stiff and ache. I have arthritis 97% of my body. I also have nerve pain from all my surgeries I had. I'm trying to figure out if I do have fibro or not.
It takes a while to diagnose fibromyalgia if I were you the first thing I would do is go on Google and look at the 12 fibromyalgia points and see if it applies to you I believe now there are 15 and to… read more
I’ve seen several posts where warm or hot showers are recommended for pain relief. I sometimes experience extreme pain from a shower - to the point of tears and I have a high pain tolerance. Has anyone else experienced this?
omg, yes the water touching my skin feels so bad and the pain of getting thru the shower is so bad, i cry also. I have decided to get a walk in tub . easy to get into and i think sitting in warm water… read more
Hi! Wondering if anyone experiences electrical shocks throughout their body? I get them so badly my body actually moves on it's own. If I get one in bed, my whole body raises off the bed. Once, while drinking a glass of water I got a shock and hit the glass into my teeth. No broken teeth...that time and I hate drinking out of plastic! :)
I went to a MAPS clinic, just once...and when I told the PA about the above, using the bed as an example, I was told it was probably static electricity in… read more

Thank you for this information. I saw the.WYLD brand gummy recommended by someone on my lung support group for pain. Different than CBD( which I take), they offer a newer one,… read more
Do any others that use marijuana for pain management have difficulties feeling out of control of your bodies? I take a very small bit of special Chocolate...made by natives from the reserve nearby. When I am in so much pain even breathing hurts. It makes my pain tolerable but leaves me so high I am afraid to move.

I’ve had a dozen surgeries and every single time, getting an IV is horrific. Aside from complications (the catheter can’t go in far enough, vein collapses, hematomas, no viable vein to poke, blood clots after removal) I have a high level of pain with the IV. I can feel the catheter in place, i get a “shock” feeling and severe burning when they push fluids or meds and it just plain hurts. I never know if my pain tolerance is just low because of the fibro or what, but I honestly suspect I can just… read more
