Hi Hun- I too have this hygiene problem, I have had to change my way and time of eating in order to "go the loo" when I get up and use my shower for "after" I have calcium crystal deposits in my arm top/pits which prevent some rotation, maybe ask you g.p to have you arm scanned for anything more than fibro? I have a mild steroid injection into my shoulder/arm top (called acromium area) and it does help enourmously.

I am having physio for my shoulder at the moment I too am having problems with this action. I thought I was going to have to ask my other half to do it for me.

Hi shedloads yes my friend, I get times when my arms really hurt, ache & very tender, even feel bruised sometimes. Wrist pain, shoulder & neck pain radiates down arms with Fibro. I have to support my arms with cushions. I find, as with most Fibro pain in limbs is helped with heat, a soak in bath, a lot of people use Epson salts & say they are very good & ease the pain.

I hope you get some relief soon my friend. Have you mentioned it to the doctor and had it checked over ?

Peace, luv n light
