Hi Amber.When I am in a flare everything hurts.The shower,the wind ,my teeth and hair follicles,and my body well,that throbs.That is the outside.Inside I have IBS.There are so many symptoms that come with this nasty fibromyalgia .These sensations you have are they like small muscle spasms continually up and down your back/side?I get them when I have done too much.Hope this is a bit helpful๐๐ป๐
Hi Amber , I know Fibromyalgia sucks Especially since itโs a hidden disease I have two grown daughters that donโt believe me and call me a drug addict itโs so hard when your loved ones donโt understand or give any support thank god ๐I found this wonderful group hope u have a good day ๐ทโค๏ธ๐น๐นโ๏ธ
Amber good for you , you tell him heโs very insensitive to others pain and discomfort Rusty should mine his manners
@A MyChronicPainTeam Member your ignorance is unkind & not appreciated here...if you are too narrow minded to be able to be compassionate & show empathy, then you're in the wrong group! Your personal opinion about what ya think about peoples suffering, says a hell of a lot about the kind of person you are & thats sad!
