Anyone else feel like this?

I have just been reviewing my own personal notes on my health over the past years. I have fibromyalgia and your symptoms sound very similar to some of what I went/am going through. Of course, there are many variations to this condition which effects everyone differently. I would ask to see a Rheumatologist as that is who will give you a diagnosis if it is Fibromyalgia. For your sake, I hope it's not and that it is something simple. Good luck, let us know how you get on if you do decide to get checked out for Fibromyalgia.

It could also be post-viral syndrome. I suffered from this for some years. Every slightest cold or bug was followed by a period of up to six weeks when the infection had gone but I felt like a piece of damp cotton wool.

In my case I finally had the PVS to end PVS - it lasted six months. Then one day I woke up feeling fine and I have not had it since. Unfortunately I cannot promise that this will happen for you.

You have to see a doctor and fight your corner.

Thank you for your messages.

No I’m not a young mother, my son is 35 and autistic. I have suspected Fibromyalgia but I am actually prediabetic but the symptoms of this started way before that, I first noticed it over 15 years ago but the flare ups were much less frequent.

HobbyCat - you must see your Doctor. From your post , I gather you are a young mother.
I am much older than you. I was quite lethargic and a routine blood test showed I am pre-diabetic. I don’t like it but I have changed my diet.
As Llame said, in your case , it could be fibromyalgia. My brother had - it’s quite a debilitating condition but I believe it is self-limiting.
Good luck

I think you really need to push for investigations into this, you should not have to put up with it. Unfortunately I have found that unless I am really proactive with our GP to the point of being pushy, nothing gets done, is tiring to have to be like this but am afraid it seems to be the only way.
Wishing you all the best 💐

Sorry you are feeling like this. Has fibromyalgia been investigated ?
