Guest guest Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 You could easily also have a little (lot?) arthritis and that will show up. With so much pain from Fibro I think it could easily be hard to tell the difference. If I hadn't gotten arthritis at an early age I don't think I'd be able to know the difference though they are very different. So, that said, it would explain it. However, they don't know a lot about Fibro, as we know. Since Fibro is an attack on the brain I could well imagine it could trigger swelling in parts of the body. I know the Fibro causes tendonitis. I've also had bursitis but I don't know what it's a part of. LOL Really, there's so many types of pain it does make one wonder. I tend to 'chalk another one up for I want to know the answer to that when I get to Heaven' a lot! Hugs, Jane ************************************************** The only bloodwork I had drawn was 3 years ago when I had to pay for it because of lack of insurance. My sedimentation rate was high, which indicated inflamation somewhere. It was during a bad FM flare. Strange, they say fibro in not an inflamatory illness???
