Default Fibromyalgia?

Hi.

First, NO! you're not losing your mind.

I have TOS - which resulted in rib resection surgery - which resulted in RSD - which resulted in fibromyalgia also.

I often feel that way in the am. It takes a little while to loosen things up and then by the end of the day, I'm in horrible pain - everywhere. But, it's different pain than the RSD pain. It's heaviness, very stiff, joints hurt when you use them or put weight on them. It obviously depends on the day too. For me, I feel it when there's a storm coming in and in the winter time.

What you mentioned to me sounds like fibro symptoms. You would want to see a rheumatologist if you find that when you research your symptoms that that also sounds like you. Check out a fibromyalgia website.

Good luck.
