I want to know if my symptoms sound like fibromyalgia? I can't think of anything else and my sister laughed at me because she thinks I'm too young to have it.
Just a few months ago I started having random shooting pain all over my body. It's daily and it doesn't interfere with my life but can be quite uncomfortable. It's not painful but noticeable. On a scale of 1-5 I'd have to rate the pain as a 1-2.
It'll be a shooting/creeping/poking type of pain in my hand, foot, knee, pinky, finger, inner thigh, elbow, wrist, arm, etc. It could be in one spot or in two spots at the same time...it's like it changes places!
I sometimes get headaches and light headedness, I don't know if they are related. I saw a neurologist and he tested my nerves on my arms and said they look okay. So I don't know what else to do.
So yeah
1. How does it start?
2. Do you think I have it? I'm not sure what doctor I should see... rheumatologist? is it a nerve, bone or muscle pain?
3. How can I treat it?
