Fibromyalgia Support Group

HI everyone I have a question. I know none of you are doctors so I know that it is only advice I am asking. I was wondering if I am having a symptom of fibro or if I need to bring this up to my new doctor. Sometimes at night when I am lying in bed I have noticed that my legs and feet have been going numb. Not to the point that I can't move them but like they are falling asleep. I have to get out of bed and move around for it to stop. I brought it up to my last doctor and was told it was my anxiety kicking in at night and was incresed on my anxiety medication. I don't think that has anything to do with it. Any advice would be appreciated.

I can't spell tonight foever this post is fribo instead of fibro

I've heard others with fibro complain about numbness, I don't have it but it's always good to discuss it with your doc. If the current line of treatment doesn't work be frank with him/her and look for options

Sorry I'm not of any more help, but I'm really foggy today

I would check with the doctor. I'm sure others will be around to share similar symptoms. I can't personally help you as I have other conditions that cause a multitude of symptoms so it just wouldn't be fair for me to answer that. I would always check with the doctor though if you experience new or worsening syptoms, that's just me

I have that too but also with my hands and arms, its called paresthesia (idk on spelling lol). When i told my doctor, we checked my B12 and it was normal, so she said that there was nothing to worry about and nothing we can. I know that doesnt really help but I thought I would share my experience.

ty for the replys I will defenatly check with my doctor to see what he has to say about it, may be nothing to worry about but then again better to be safe than sorry later.
