Yes, I am extremely pressure sensitive. I have to remind my kids to be gentle when they hug me & sometimes even a sheet on my feet at night is too much pressure… that symptom can overlap with neuropathy but still! I’ve read about pressure sensitivity in fibro before.

Yes definitely! Sometimes just resting my arm on my desk hurts 😔

Yes, sometimes the pain is just too much. I’ll have to wear a sign that says please do not touch…Fibro in session

Oh yes! Any pressure any point on my body.
A friend was over he said something funny and did a slight arm nudge, told him it felt like he punched me for all he was worth! He said he didn’t do it that hard, I reminded him I have fibro and what might not bother one person is crippling to one with fibromyalgia.
We have to keep educating people. 🤗

First time ever! Yesterday my daughter took me to get a pedicure and I loved it.
The girl was very gentle and I got home ate laid down woke up and my feet just throbbed and aced. Never had that happen before getting my feet done. I have been going through a lot of change.
