Could this be fibromyalgia?

Posted , 2 users are following.

Evening, I am fairly new to this but wondered if what i have been suffering with is fibro?

what started with a dull pain under my left armpit and breast has turned into a full body worth of aches and pains. my chest feels achy and very sore to touch but i mainly have discomfort and soreness in my bottom ribs especially my right side. I have also tummy pains and change in bowel habbit. my back is the worst and has not stopped hurting all over for months now. i feel tender to touch and have done the tender spots which you assiociate with fibro and they all hurt. Even the back of my head hurts. putting on a pair if trousers feels sore.

i have had loads of blood work, stool sample and a chest xray which have come back normal. my doctor was waiting for my results but said fibro could be the cause.

does anyone else experience any of these symptoms.

Thamks lucy.

    Have you tested for vitamin d deficiency?I know many doctors tend to not check for some nutritional deficiencies which can cause a lot of pain.Also have you check your B12 and thyroid?
