Sleep Paralysis
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Has anyone experienced sleep paralysis? Last 3 nights as i have been falling asleep. I feel like everything is spinning around in my sleep, had wierd hallucinations and then feel paralysed and want to wake up but cant. Obviously i do wake up but i feel scared and have to turn lights on to calm down. Think had it before but not 2 or 3 nights. Had cortisone injection and huge flare up, been off work. Not sure if that is contributing to it. Wierd!!

Morning Shakiness And Weakness
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Sometimes when I first wake up in the morning my arms feel super weird: like shaky and weak. It is totally random and happens before I even get out of bed when i am still half asleep. If i try to pull my blanket back up over my body i notice it. Once im fully awake and get out of bed it is gone. Anyone experience anything similar?

I'm Having Horrible Neck Pain With Severe Limited Range Of Motion. Any Suggestions For Relief?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I began getting a sore neck about three weeks ago it has since become unbearable. I'm not currently on any fibro meds and am really struggling with this. The pain is now causing headaches and anxiety issues. It feels as though my neck is swollen. I have been under a ton of stress so I'm not surprised I'm flaring! It's difficult to turn my head! Has anyone else ever experienced this and what did you do to ease the symptoms?

Pain About Three Hours After Waking
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I know morning stiffness is a symptom of fibromyalgia but my pain seems to be different and I was wondering if anyone else has any ideas.

I wake most mornings feeling decent. I only wake feeling badly if it was an exceptionaly bad night. Unfortunately, it doesn't last. After being awake for about 3 hours a terrible all over body ache/burn starts setting in.

Yes, I have noticed it comes on a few hours after waking and "up and doing." I have journaled this and I recall telling my therapists 3-4 hours it's bad.

I think it's a build up of tension… read more
