Not sure if I have it dr says its my spinal cord as my spine is at a 140degree bend and can't be fixed.but I think some thing else is wrong. I have numbness of my feet. My legs lock in a straight position can't bend them. shake if I sit down and a very sensitine to paid just a tspoon or a nock on my toes I will collapse in pain . Now I can't walk 1 step can barely sit on the toiled as my leg locks and I can't sit like that. I get a pinch in my left hip and it make my leg pull in like I was sitting. If I try to straiten my feet my leg will shake.i don't sleep well. As my legs are  in a straight position and feels like there getting pulled . Sorry for the mistakes in it I'm just fed up sick and tired and in pain

    Hi cindy89064 for a diagnosis for fibro your gp has to refer you to see a rheumatologist, its they who normally diagnose fibro after other conditions have been ruled out. fibro is based on wide spread pain the pain can affect any part of the body. fibro has many symptoms pain , fatique fibro fog, tinnitus earache sore throat, numbness tingling burning headaches migrains pins needles and many more symptoms. I would see your gp again tell them about the numbness and how how your legs are take care

    Everyone is different I learned that we know ourselves better than the doctors. You must be your own advocate and researcher. I know that when I took control over everything, I got to live better than I was when listening to doctors.
