Does Anyone Experience Issues With Their Balance?

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
PEI, Canada

Hi, I lost my balance while walking downstairs today. It was only 2 steps I fell but I landed on the floor on my right hip. Which was injured last October from overstepping coming down off a ladder
I am still trying to figure out how it happened
I felt off for the rest of the day. Spoke with my pharmacist as I worried about a possible TIA.
He felt it wasn’t a TIA or stroke that I may have overstepped and lost my balance.
Has anyone also experienced a balance issue. Is it be a Fibro symptom?… read more

It goes in cycles for me. I can be sitting down, watching TV and I get light-headed and dizzy. What the heck?

But yep add me to the group of people this happens to.

You are not alone. 🤗

I am glad you are ok! I get dizziness, too. Steps make me nervous.. we downsized to a one level home so that helps..I get dizzy when I’m on a ladder, I don’t know why…

I have problems with my balance. I hate it when i am going up the stairs with stuff in my hands/arms and can feel myself going backwards.

Yes it can be. Also ,ear infection, mild, or even teeth affects your sinuses and that can affect you hearing which can affect your balance. It's kind of like the song, you ankle bone is connected to you leg bone , your leg bone is connected to your hip bone.......🤗🤗🤗🐕 Please check out the green cover book at the library or order it,it's not mine, I have used it in classes for fibromyalgia patients. ' Fibromyalgia and Myofacial Pain Syndrome '
