Hypertension And Onset Of Fibro

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I haven't been diagnosed with fibromyalgia but looking around the internet and forums like this, it's the nearest thing I have seen. My symptoms are mild - fleeting pains around joints and fatigue some days although I manage to get to the gym a couple of time a week and for sure my symptoms are not as extreme as some described on here My question related to onset and whether my experience rings bells with anyone.

Hi and welcome.
I'm relatively new here and not diagnosed yet either. The difficulty with fibro is it's an umbrella term for a huge and vast array of symptoms which present in varying degrees of severity, duration and on set.

A good history (so what's been going on, when it started and how it's affecting your life) is really effective.
I wish you all the best

Interesting point - there was indeed an emotional trauma - it has the feel of an auto-immune reaction - think I'm just going to have to find a doctor who can figure it out.

Do you mean your history ? Heal fracture ?
Now there is some medical experts who believe that onset is due to a trauma. (Any whether it be physical, emotional or chemical.) the brain cannot distinguish between these insults it's just an injury. The body, emotion/ whatever hasn't healed properly (a cascade affect occurs as systems are interlinked) and then goes rather crazy. But ????? I don't know - I ain't a doc.
