Hi, can someone please help me. I have pain in my shoulders, elbows, wrists and fingers. The pain feels like it is in my bones. I cannot pick things up without pain. I can Barely lift my arms. The pain in my hips in indescribable, which goes down my legs. My ankles and feet, I can barely walk. I don't feel like my body can hold me up any more. Does anyone else feel like this. Many thanks

Hi anotherday. You have described me also down to a tee! I know I have the strength to lift things but the pain is unbearable and lasts for hours after or more often all day and night. If I limit myself to a completely lazy day then the pain does subside considerably but I then get bored and over do it the next day! Hugs and thoughts with you. Try to have soothing baths and rest when u need it. I have to resort to the tram adolescent after a bad night of it. Take care

I have experienced a similar intense phase of bone pain this was temporary and had a lot of rest, another time a phase where my arms and hands flared up intensely from elbow tender point radiating out for 2 weeks solid, in the end I used a strong tiger balmy type of ointment and massaged gently and often, it shifted. Hope this helps, it hasn't returned so badly in arms and hands, though hip joints are bad and lots of rest is needed. Alice

Sorry you are suffering in this way, I'm stating the obvious here but have you mentioned this to your GP. All the information on fibro states that it doesn't cause bone pain, I'm not convinced however I do have other conditions. Do see your GP, sometimes you need to be persistent to get answers. Best Wishes. Lou x

Tramadol that is. Just love predictive text and brain fog! Sorry lol!

Thank you so much for the replies. I have some tiger balm in and some emu oil, so I will start on that again. I have tried all the medications the doctors prescribe, but I cannot handle them. So I'm only on Duloxetine, Trazodone, Paracetamol and Co-codomol. I feel like I'm just worn out. I don't want to dwell on all my symptoms as I would be writing you a book. Thanks for the support. It's nice to get help, advice and comforting words from people who understand. I am sick of people telling me it's all in my head. I don't have the fight in me to argue with them.

I read that you use emu oil. I have been using it on my shoulder where I have a torn muscle and my legs for fibro pain. After a few applications it does take away the pain I also use it on my arthritic fingers. I can't beleive how good it is so do keep massaging it in several times a day. You have my sympathy and take care. X

I am going to the Doctors again. I just feel that I'm always at the Doctors. When ever I tell the Doctor my problems or concerns, I feel it is always put down to Fibromyalgia. I am going to be strong and ask for further tests.
