It's weird as this is something that I've never experienced before : sound causing pain.. But the last few days I've experienced Fibromyalgia pain, which I'm pretty sure is what it is.
I have deadening pain down my left arm and right leg. It feels like when you bash your elbow into a door. That deadening sharp pain.
Nerve pain is something I've always experienced on and off but yesterday I was feeling particularly bad and everytime the door closed/toilet flushed or the toddler shouted out, it sent little electric currents of pain down my body.
Suffering from Misophonia already, those noises are a pain in the bum so to speak but I've never experienced physical pain from sounds before.
Unfortunately, other that shutting myself in a room with earplugs there's no way to escape everyday sounds!
Do you suffer from Fibromyalgia? How do you manage your flare ups when medication fails to work? Does sound effect your pain?
I'd love to hear other people's experiences!

Gym Bunny!
I'm writing this from a disappointingly warm bath (our house heating and water run from the same..so because we've had the heating on, we haven't got much got water!)
I just did my first work out in many years!
I have a personal trainer for 1 hour a week who knows about my HMS and is working with me to build up my core strength. He's great, I felt confident in my first session and managed to do 30 minutes of (low intensity) cardio and also some weights.
I had absolutely no clue of what I can do (hence why I'm paying a personal trainer!) but I'm incredibly pleased with what I pushed myself through today. Though towards the end it was getting very tough.
Now (in my even colder bath) my legs are aching and other muscles I forgot I had! So I've taken my cocodamols and am just waiting to see if it triggers a HMS flare up or not. I so hope not seeing as il be doing this every week from now!
Who would have thought it, 2 weeks into January and I've lost 8lbs and have started the gym! I'm hoping 2013 is the year where I get myself back to who I used to be!
