I see a lot of us share some common pains. I have chronic back pain, had two surgeries one was a laminectomy L5-S1, the other to break off my coccyx bone. It was growing outwards, I was trying to grow a tail . Then had both hands done carpal tunnel, then hemorrhoids (worst surgery ever), left knee surgery and then some minor stuff. A few years ago I was diagnosed with Fibro. I don't understand how they can diagnose something with all the symptoms overlapping. Like with mental health. The right side of my body hurts so bad right now and I haven't done anything for it to feel that way. Are there Fibro Flare Ups?

Hello Trace14: I don't know the answer to your question. I would think there could certainly be such a thing as a fibro flare-up. But I don't know. I know about chronic ailments though. I have a ruptured disc that impinges on the sciatic nerve. So I have sciatica primarily in the left leg although I also experience some discomfort in the right. I also have Meniere's Disease & tinnitus. Plus, since I'm an older person, I've begun experiencing the onset of some other strange stuff. I'm not receiving treatment for any of it...

Ooo Sciatica is a pain. Nothing like nerve pain, it's like it hurts to the bone. I take that back. If you ever have had an abscess tooth ....that is some pain, or a kidney stone for guys. Anyway sorry you are dealing with all the pains and no treatments for them. How do you manage the pain?
