Only now, the pain is in my whole body, not just my legs. I'm worried I might have to add fibromyalgia to my list of diagnoses... My body is in really bad pain right now as I type. From my head to my toes It gets so bad sometimes I don't want my boyfriend to touch me, and I don't want to move around or get up. It doesn't help that I have chronic insomnia, and can't get to sleep tonight. Just makes it worse.. I will have to take a leftover percocet tonight... Oh , and sometimes I get really sharp pain in random joints, but I feel like it may be unrelated, maybe some type of arthritis? sometimes a random joint in my finger will have sharp pain for a few minutes. Sometimes it can be my ankle, knee, or even a joint in my toe. When will the pain stop!
Hi just read your post and wanted to see how your feeling,any better?
I can totally understand your pain as I'm a fibro sufferer with widespread arthritis and also insomnia.
Its so painful and frustrating and I always want to be more positive about myself but somehow I feel its living an existence not a life! (Sorry just venting don't mean to pull you down)I'm only 34 and have been like this for 8yrs argh it drives me nuts!
I can appreciate every word you've written and until you have this sort of pain nobody can understand what its like.
I would see a doctor and discuss what your feeling as my fibro began with only a couple of symptoms and sometimes an accurate Dx can take a while.
Please take care and remember your not alone
Jk
