Hi Cathy, unfortunately, it’ a fibro thing. You have my sympathy as there’s no easy answer.

I find the pain on being lightly touched is very difficult, because other people get upset if you tell them that it hurts and sometimes get huffy about it (despite having been repeatedly told over countless years. It seems to be something that is met with complete disbelief, despite getting them to read about it.

I get burning skin on my shins mainly, but also where my skin feels like it’s been rubbed raw on my underwear, but hasn’t. I’m constantly on the hunt for soft, comfortable clothes and it’s not unknown for me to change clothes several times in a day. What works on day, might not work the next. When it comes to bedding, with much smoothing and adjusting going on and the slightest crease feels like a mountain. I’m sorry that I haven’t got any answers for you.

You might like to lock your post, as some people don’t like replying to unlocked posts. It’s the one place we can rant in private. Here’s the link that shows you how to do it

Hello cathy1110 Yes is the answer fibro can affect your skin, I hate being touched, I struggle with bed clothes some nights, my knuckles can sometimes feel like Ive trapped them in a door,, I have adopted my own remedy for this, I was told a few years ago I have arthralgia in my hands and I soak them in warm water, pat them dry then apply Votarol gel like hand cream, inbuprofen works too but it leaves a sticky greasy feel. I coat the whole of my skin in DOUBLEBASE gel (not diprobase) it helps as I itch a lot in crevices because of dry skin ..
