Hi! Hope you can shed some Light on what's going on with my body.
It all started about five years ago. I was healthy athletic man in my prime, never had any health issues.
Then one day i woke up with a stiff lower back, but it loosened as the day went on. As days and weeks passed i got progressively stiffer and stiffer in the lower back.
It all ended up with my seriously tweaking my lower back while dead lifting,and after that it all went down hill.
I never managed to loosen up lower back with massage stretching or corrective exercises.
Fast forward a year and i start getting pains and stiffness in my mid back, hips, si joint, knees, feet, shoulders, neck, and now recently my elbows wrists and fingers.
The strange thing Is the more i use a muscle the tighter it gets. Just washing the floor in my appartement Is enough the cause severe stiffness in my back and neck.
When its real bad i cant even stand for more then a couple of minutes before i can feel the lower back muscles stiffen, and pain increase.
And if i try to sit on a chair without really good back support i get serious pain in mid back and neck.
If i massage and stretch the muscles they relax a bit, and i can do a little more before they stiffen up again.
I get better after laying down and relaxing. Im better in the Morning, and get worse the more i do and the later it gets. My joints make loud clicking and grinding noises.
I've also developed sound sensitivity, extreme dry mouth and frequent headaches.
But the real killer Is the muscle stiffness from activity, it prevents me from almost doing anything, and has ruined my life.
I've seen two rheumatologists, the only thing that showed up Is hashimoto's. But proper medication with T4 and t3 has not resolved the issues.
I don't have fatigue, brain fog or tender points.
My Mother has EXCACTLY the same symptomes as me, doctors never found anything, and finally gave the diagnosis fibromyalgia. Does this sound like fibro to you guys?
