Welcome. I hope if nothing else we can give u support .ask your Dr about Fibro ,or asked to be referred to a Nero.
We all understand the none stop pain ,the restless nights , tell me what has the Dr giving u for pain?.and after an op a lot of ppl sarcome to Fibro .its very common.
For me it's shoulder blades top of arms and legs that are killing me .your not alone my lovely .x
