Is it well known if we tense up during sleep if you have fibromyalgia? I have had a rotator cuff repair recently, but pain is worse at night. It feels like I have been tensing my whole body in my sleep, when I get to sleep or I keep waking up.Is it well known if we tense up during sleep if you have fibromyalgia?

Doctors know best.

I had to have a colonoscopy recently and having had previous colonoscopies, I knew that my RLS legs were always a problem. I live in the USA and they use Propofol, which knocks me out but makes my Restless legs really bad. So, I explained this to the Doctor and the anesthetic person.
