Smile Hi Rainbow...

Welcome back! Fibro is such a complicated illness that the possible symptom lists can be a whole page long. I've studied it extensively, and I'm still not sure I understand it well.

My fibro is secondary to another condition, so that muddies the waters, too. I can never be sure which symptoms come from what. But the most common symptoms of fibro are sore, achy muscles and joints. They can also include chemical sensitivities, jaw pain, sensitivity to temp changes, and dozens of other things. It is usually aggravated greatly by lack of sleep. If you want to understand this illness you are going to have to put some time into studying it. There's a wealth of info all over the web, and several good books on the market. In the meantime, I and everyone else would be happy to answer any specific questions you might have regarding the condition.

Good luck and best wishes...
