Does Anyone Suffer From Hyperesthesia?

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
Reno, NV

I've had fibromyalgia for many years now. More than I care to admit. The older I get the worse it gets. The pain and exhaustion is unrelenting. Now I find myself with a new symptom which is hyperesthesia. My skin is so sensitive to everything that touches it that some days I want to scream. My clothes hurt, the bed hurts, the chair hurts, and if someone touches me the pain is excruciating. Before I talk to the doctor about it, I would like to know if anyone else experienced this. What do you do… read more

I can't stand the wrinkles either and if a grain of sand gets in my bed somehow I feel like it is a rock. My pajamas started feeling like they had sandspurs in them so I got some of the nylon, silky feeling ones and they are better. I can't stand anything lacy though and I can't stand underwear that has seams in the crotch. Wait until you try to find that. It is a nightmare. I really have to be careful what I wear or I am terribly miserable. Hope no one has this problem.

Bed wrinkles just drive me nuts. Nightgowns and pajamas are out. I swear my naked skin would hurt. I finally went to the store and I got what they call biking shorts that go under skirts. Theyre skin tight. That and a T-shirt and pull the sheets as tight as I can get and that's the best I can do. Love those biking shorts. I got the ones I like from Kohl's. I got a couple of pair from Walmart and they're all right with their sizing is screwy. 🍫❤️B

Wrinkles feel like blades and any size grit feels like ground glass. Sometimes I get little sores on my thighs from grit. I have gone to sleeping on a flease blanket, softer

Wrinkles in the sheets are the worst!

I don't know why that happens, but it seems to happen to us all. I have found I can't tolerate a wrinkle in my bed at night. I've gone from nighties, to PJs to now wearing what they call dress shorts and a T-shirt for bed. I get those bottom sheets tight. Sometimes it'll take me an hour to get the wrinkles out. I finally gave in and bought a 3 inch thick gel egg crate topper for my bed. Heaven. 🍫❤️B
