Any new symptom should be checked out, whether it might be linked to fibro or not. There could be a number of reasons for the symptoms you are experiencing.

Yes I realise that,I ve been to the doctors regarding this,no examination or tests etc said it could be because of painkillers and offered me anti depressants!!! So I thought i d check on here for anyone with similar problem,

Hi Kazee,

yes I've got a horrible taste in my throat especially when I wake up.

I'm having lots of issues with reflux throughout the night, mouth & nose extremely dry, constantly clearing my throat, losing my voice & going hoarse.

Suspect it might be

Laryngopharyngeal Reflux (Silent Reflux)

Anything sound familiar?

Yes I get this too I have hiatus hernia..get earaches from it too..I now take my omeprazole at 7 an hour or so before bed to help me through the night instead of on a morning..I think I suffer as I like to sleep on low pillow to stop from getting pains in neck which I find worse to cope with...I get horrible tastes in mouth now with tablets and as pain specialist told me to go on CBD oil I seem to taste that all the time now.. which I suppose Vis better..also have chronic ibs and pains in stomach and sickness and now I'm getting terrible sweats that I cannot control as soon as I stress for the slightest reason

Yes I've started taking my omeprazole twice daily, helping so far🤞

On waiting list for gallbladder surgery & can totally empathise with neck pain, IBS, temp control, sweats

It's awful the minute you start to do anything! Dressing after a shower is just ............. 🥵🥵
