Some people find that they experience electric shock type pains which can affect any part of the body.

But if it's a new symptom, and not your usual type of pain, then it's worth mentioning to your gp

Yes, sometimes it is one of those little blocky batteries, sometimes a car battery, but always annoying. It happens everywhere too, hand and feet are worst.

Morning, worth booking a call back from your doctor for a piece of mind, so many symptoms that can be related to fibro but differently follow this up xx

I’ve been getting it for years. Way before I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. It goes in through my right temple to my eye. Also have one in my right hip. Optician said there is nothing abnormal that they can see. I usually get a double electric shock in quick succession then nothing for several weeks.

Hi MJolby. I had that problem that I couldn't explain but eventually found out that my depression meds could do that as a secondary effect of withdrawal. Maybe you or someone else can relate to this. Have a nice day

PMR and other vein issues worth reading about. Types of migraines. Poor posture, neck issues and lack of mobility in neck muscles.
