hi can someone help fibromyalgia diagnosis

[Guest]

I am 40 years old...

sometimes i would wake up w/ an almost burning sensation in both forearms and my hands would feel stiff...then as I got up for the day it would go away...now sometimes during the day my forearms just feel sore or like a little burning like i used my muscles too much...if I climb stairs or bike my thigh muscles feel sore too but walking im fine and no other symptoms ...do you think I have ALS? btw its the top and under of the forearms

[Guest]

Sorry about your fears, but you do not have ALS. Just try to relax and not worry.

Well that's not nice at all. I am sorry you are having such a hard time.

The good news is: It really does not sound like ALS . The symptoms are wrong.

The bad news is: You need to see your Dr or a neurologist to get the real diagnosis.

It sounds like you are stressing yourself out trying to figure it out. And that will not help you. Please see a doctor.

BTW. Welcome to the board.

I agree with Glen, you really need to see a neurologist and find out what is happening. But the good news is the symptoms are wrong for ALS.
