Hey everyone! I have a question about fibro that I recently got diagnosed with and curious if I really have it.
I'm a 28yo male and I have been having issues for a little over a year. It all started with abdomen pain and tenderness in my abdomen. Then I stated having pains in my chest. Not deep in my chest but On the outside of my chest plate. My ribs are constantly tender to the touch with also sporadic pains about the size of a quarter on both sides of my body. But the pains come and go in different spots between 30 secs to 15 mins, sometimes longer. I have pains in my knees,in my thighs, behind both of my eyes(headache feeling), in my elbows, in the middle part of my back,the lower part and upper part.(all the time pain in my back and abdomen). My tail bone even hurts (It goes and comes) I have pains under my jaws,in my jaw joints(my jaws pop), in my shoulders and I'm sure I'm messing something I just can't remember. Oh, I have ibs, definitely. Solid to runny to solid all the time (sorry, just explaining). Also, neck pains but, again, they come and go. All of these pains are in different places everyday.
I question the diagnosis because all of these pain only last at the most three hours but, only average about 30 secs to15 mins. Most of the pains are in my abdomen,chest, ribs and back. When I hurt I can't make anything hurt by moving what is hurting. It just hurts. only time I can make it hurt is when I press it with my fingers.I'm confused.
I have had a ton of tests done. Two CT scans, three blood test, urine test, sigmoidoscopy, biopsy of my colon. My next stop is to the rheumatologist to rule out an auto immune disease and to confirm my fibromyalgia. Oh yeah, I have slight headaches every day. (I'm remember things as I go) Maybe, some nights I have rls but not every night. I'm not fatigue everyday just some days. I'm sure there is more I just can't remember
I guess the question is: does fibro affect the whole muscle or just spots of the muscle? Or both? Does it hurt when you press against said muscle? Does it last for hours or just mins? Would it affect some muscles more then others?
the pains aren't excruciating, just dull annoying pains.
Thank you for your feedback. And if you have ANY QUESTIONS please feel free to ask.
