Does any one have this symptom. I am in a flair up and have begun to be very unbalanced. I have not had this symptom before.

Hi and welcome!

Yes, I have this problem. I am soo bruised all of the time cuz I'm constantly falling over, losing my balance, getting dizzy, running into stuff or just plain out clumsy!!

How long have you had a Fibro dx? (if you don't mind my asking)

Yes I feel out of balance and unsteady much more than I used to and always feel like I have to think about certain steps I take.

Yes! I have had that feeling before. I would feel very unbalanced just while walking. I felt like I might fall over. I began feeling as though I was swaying and seasick. Weird!! I felt like I was pulling to one side. I don't know what caused this, but it finally went away. I wondered if my headache was putting pressure on my inner ear causing me to be imbalanced. I don't know - just guessing. I hate all these CRAZY symptoms!!!

I get unbalanced alot too... I feel alot like my head is being pulled to one side and my body to the other and my head gets real foggy too all at the same time. These last for like 45 seconds and they happen like 3 times a day usual everyday...

I have had FMS for 7 years now, and am learning that it is in constant change. I am sooo glad I found this forum. Finally, people who really understand exactly what I am going through. Now I don't feel like I am going completely crazzzzzy!!!! This balance thing has really worried me. Thank you all for all your posts. Now I can just add being unbalanced to my ever increasing list of FMS symptoms. You girls have helped alot. thanks.
