I have three kinds of pain.
Skin burning like in a pizza oven, on surface, with sometimes surface knife stabs - that's my CRPS or RSD. It moves around, some weeks it's on my right arm. Then it moves to left. Then it moves to back of calves. Comes and goes.
Fibromyalgia - deep bone aching, deep muscle aching. Feels like bad flu. I get that on ankles, calves, arms, shoulders, back, hips. Comes and goes.
TOS pain - too many symptoms to list - but includes neck pain like I've been in a car accident yesterday - top of shoulder, shoulder, knife pain between shoulder blade and spine, middle of arm there is a big knot, little grape knots that form on back, spot by elbow, pain on forearm and hand and needling pain on thumbs, fingers and feet. These pains are constant, from a 6 to 10.
When all of these pains are going at once, it is too much.
I had my rib resection and scalenectomy April 06. For one year all headaches left, and so did RSD. Now bits of both return.
I have had TOS now for 5 years, from computer. I am totally bedridden, sick.
