Fibromyalgia

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia about 9 years ago, after a long time of leg pain, whole body pain and exhaustion.  I have read that fibro is often experienced by those on the spectrum as it is a heightened sensitivity to pain. Has anyone else here experienced the symptoms or been diagnosed? I think I manage my fibro symptoms quite well, but some days I feel like I have been hit by a truck. How much of this is also as a result of burnout, I'm not sure.

  • You poor thing. I hope your doing ok with this? I have both asd and fibromyalgia. I'm in pain and exhausted every day have been for years and it's not in a great place so most days I'm in so much pain and so tired I don't even get out of bed. I should really get to the doctors for some better help with this but I don't think I'd be able to get there because it's so overwhelming. Argh I hate it!
