I had a d&c with general anesthesia to remove 'an abundance of endometrial tissue overgrowth' . Ever since then I've been experiencing excruciating pain in my upper back, then it progressed to my lower back, then shoulders, then arms, today it's down to my fingertips and down to my legs.
I'm thinking fibromyalgia, but have yet to receive a formal diagnosis.
Had begun to have some backache in October after an emotional response to an overwhelmingly stressful situation. But after the surgery I was in such agony I finally went to the doc for painkillers. Regular painkillers did not relieve the pain, and even the opiates he prescribed did not relieve it fully. I have not continued to take them cuz it makes me very tired and disoriented.
Anyone ever experienced a drastic worsening of fm symptoms after a surgery?
