Hey guys, firstly I know I can't be diagnosed here but it's difficult to see a GP in this current climate but I just wanted to get some opinions on people that have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia.
2 months ago I started to get random intermitted pain that jumps from place to place in my shoulders, upper back, arms, hands, ribs and sometimes in my legs/feet on both sides of my body (I seem to have developed IBS during this period which runs in my family). The pain has caused me bad anxiety as I've no idea why I'm in pain, sometimes during the day I get periods of fatigue. I've had some bloods taken but I'm currently waiting to hear back from the doctor so he can take more bloods to rule out other things. (Rheumatoid arthritis etc).
It's been driving me mad as I suffer from anxiety and think I've got a serious illness, and it couldn't of happened at a worse time with COVID and not being able to see a doctor.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated (Like what tests doctors have to do to diagnose you with it), and I'll answer any questions people have for me
