Bursitis and tennis elbow?

Hi everyone, I’ve had fibro for many years and go through flares like everyone else, except this latest flare is not getting any better, I think because I couldn’t access the chiropractor and massage over lockdown. I was seeing a physio before lockdown who thought I have bursitis in both hips and I also now have tennis elbow in both arms. My pain has mostly been muscle, joints and skin but this stuff is a progression. Does this connect with fibro, I mean am I feeling the resulting pain from this amplified or are we more likely to have tendon issues?

Hi I also have, all the same symptoms if yourself, I also have frozen shoulder, believe it or not I go to work give days a week like this, I also have plantar fasciitis, it’s excruciating to walk, I buy vionic shoes they help a bit with my feet and hips.

I also work like this but some of my hours I can do from home. It’s so hard working, or doing anything with this.

Hi

I get pain everywhere have done for years . I have to have injections under my arm as I can’t bare the tops of my arms touched this has been for many years now . My body is very sensitive. One day I have pain in my arms the next it could be hips or legs . It’s as if the fibromyalgia has a mind of its own it’s like a little being inside that causes lots of different problems. I woke with a pain in my eye by lunch time it had gone. It’s very strange . My eyesight some days it’s better than others. These things are sent to try us . One thing with fibromyalgia you never seem to get two days the same.

Hi, my fibromyalgia has progressed to my tendons, I have tennis elbow in both, last year I had golfers elbow in both and had steroid injections, they didn’t work.

I also have plantar fasciitis and post tibia tendon problems. All these have arrived within the last 2 years. Very strange

Thanks for your reply. I was kind of used to the muscle pain but this is a whole new level.
