Hello everyone. I, hope your all keeping safe and well. I haven't been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, my Dr is not very helpful at all, but I'm pushing it now. My new simptom is my neck and throat. Clicking in my throat, stiff neck?? Any help x

I get a stiff neck, but I’m not sure if that is down to Fibromyalgia or Parkinson’s. What other symptoms do you have?

Best wishes to you.

Good Morning,

Welcome to our wonderful fibro forum..... I suggest that you have a quick look at our main site which has loads of helpful hints and tips -> fmauk.org/

Unfortunately you do have to keep onto your GP in order to get a diagnosis! Sorry don't have any problems with my throat, except for this awful cold!! xxx

Welcome to the FMAUK Community Bexs8080 !

Thanks for posting about your problems with your neck however I'm afraid I cannot relate to this experience as I personally do not have neck pain. Have you previously had any trauma to your neck area at all? Do you have any other symptoms you feel fit the picture of Fibromyalgia? Have you been referred to a Rhuematologist or spoken to your GP about a referral?

Apologies for all the questions but without more information it is difficult to piece together your reason to believe you may have Fibromyalgia. For additional information I'd like to provide this link to NHS Choices below as this may be of interest and you may be able to relate to your situation

Diagnosis can be tricky and often a lengthy process alongside the possibility your neck may be a entirely separate issue as some members have a primary diagnosis with Fibromyalgia secondary to this medical condition.

Also can I mention you may wish to lock your posts to this community and the reasons why this might be the best option is explained in the link as well as help on how to do this;

I hope you find the community as supportive as many users do and I look forward to your reply

All the best

Emma :)

Hi yes lots off other stuff going off that's just the latest. I have twitching muscles all over not all the time ibs, pins and needlesin hands as soon as I get into bed restless leg, crawling feelings in legs, general pain in muscles, all of a sudden my wrist or ankle could go like iv sprained them, then go back to normal, very odd, sometimes loud noise will go through me to. Cloudy eyes in the morning for about 1 hour, can sleep anytime so tired, then I can't sleep.. Lots xxx

Hi Bexs8080 welcome to fibro land! I hear what you are describing- try to insist your gp send you to a specialist physio to help you with some appropriate excercises, maybe enquire if there is hydrotherapy available close by- I travelled 10 miles initally for hydro but I had used it years ago for another illness and I knew it worked so persevered. I go weekly now.

Not what you're looking for?
