Does Anyone Else Get Pain Like Someone Is Sticking A Pin In You

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question ๐Ÿ’ญ
Reading, UK

Its like a sudden jabbing pain like someone has stabbed you with a pin or several pins. Its is so embarrassing when it happens and I have visitors. We can be talking away and suddenly I will jump up and shout OUCH!.
I feel such a fool, they must think I am nuts.
When my guest asks what's wrong I just reply I think I was stung by a wasp. Cos that's kind of what it feels like. Does anyone else experience this sudden random pain?๐Ÿ˜

Yes another fibro thing. Also feeling something is crawling on you, brain sparks too just like it sounds,

YES! Actually it feel like knives sometimes. I literally gasp out loud when I get the stabbing pain in the left side of my ribs. I freak my daughter out. I never know when it's going to happen. I get these pains in other areas too. I have gotten ice pick headaches too, those are the worst...

Yes and sometimes it feels stronger, like a nail, and sometimes like a knife. Yeah, good times. ๐Ÿ™„ oh well, good to know I am not alone, Amy

I get pains like getting stabbed with an ice pick randomly all over my body. I do feel embarrassed when this happens around other people. I find it hard to try to explain my body attacking me.

Those of us who swear a little...or a lot, maybe we should just yell โ€œTouretteโ€™sโ€ afterwards and keep on walking?
