Guest guest Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 Yes, I have chest pain, I had FM for a long time before the chest pain started but now it seems to be here to stay. Mine hurts mostly when I move, so far only slight pain at rest... but I take a lot of painkillers on a regular basis. I have always had back pain when standing or walking, but recently I stood up and had a tremendous ripping hot pain across my lower back. Since then I have had a continuous pain in my lower back which is different from the pain I feel on standing. I fear with FM we can expect pain anywhere and just have to be glad when it is absent for a while from any spot. Penny Shrewsbury UK chest pain Do any of you have chest pain with having fibro?? My chest almost always hurts me, but I also have costo as well. Lastnight it set in hurting so bad had to take 2 darvocets to get it ease some. But right back hurting this morning.

I had my heart checked out and it is fine..so must be the fibromyalgia; or the costochondritis. Mine hurts almost all the time, though I do have short periods of respite from it. But, even when it isn't " actively hurting " my chest feels like it is " stiff " or if I could just give it a good enough stretch it would feel much better. I'd love to be able to see what it would do if I took some pain meds...perhaps when I find a new doc I'll be able to see!!!!!!

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 All of that was why they did such tests on me, when it hits I can not move becasue of the pain, and then after it passes I just am soooo tired. but as I said I had test run on me that they don't normally do and they found nothing... I think thats a good thing, ha Jackie > Jackie, I have angina and keep nitro pills by my bed and in my purse and by the piano....where I teach. It comes quickly and violently.
