When you have an itch!

[Ashleyw1987]

I'm thinking my fibro started a few years ago but have had lots of the nasty symptoms only in the recent few months. A few years ago I noticed if I had an itch I'd scratch it and it would feel so bruised and painful 😩 But I never thought anything of it

That's what I've started getting, I didn't realise it was due to fibro! That explains a lot lol. It's so uncomfortable and sensitive to touch isn't it? Take care Hun and feel free to talk anytime you want to x

Top of my foot has had that horrible itchy feeling all night and is still going but I know if I itch it I will be like you the skin will start hurting, grhh. Isn't fibro fun (not). You have my sympathy.x

I get this hun; it’s because our bodies are extra sensitive to pain! Sometimes it feels like the scratch as been seared onto my skin. Have to really think before I itch now days! Xxx

Yes that sounds about right you have a scratch and you feel tender and sore afterwards have you been diagnosed yet xx

No I haven't yet, only by doctor have to wait till January to be diagnosed but I have so many symptoms for it. They've seem to have got worse over the 3 months 😩 I think I've had it since the birth of my son had terrible spd/ pelvic pain then the itching and hurting started and my tummy felt so saw after for ages. I feel like I can't talk to my family how much it affects me I feel like I've had to say goodbye to the old me 😣

Yes that's it we bottle it up that's why I think the forum is a good place to come where can chat have a good moan sometimes and know people really do know what your going through , I've heard that more than once saying goodbye to the old me fibro certainly changes lives, but I'm hoping you can share what your feeling, think you'll find people are very supportive and kind x
