I know by now you must think that I am crazy but my whole left arm and hand have been having needles and pins for thellast week it's like they went to sleep and now are waking up. Also has anyone heard of a hemotoma(SP) turning into a cyst? I fell of a shovel, don't ask it's an ugly picture last May after months of hurting ok only two I went to the Dr. like him just don't like going and he said I had a bad bruise and it may take awhile for it to go away because my healing was so slow that's not all that is slow but that's another subject so after all of this time it hurting and my ankle giving out sometimes I went back a couple of weeks ago and he tried to get something out of it because it is still swollen and nothing came out so he said I had a cyst, all of this is on my left side. Is that weird? Jean

Jean, the needles and pins feeling is unfortunately "normal" with Firbo. I no longer get it but it is a normal sensation that Fibro sufferes can have.

Yes, I have heard of a hemotoma turning into a cyst. My mom has had that happen a couple of times. She has disbetis...do you by chance have diabetis???

No I don't have diabetes but for some reason I am healing really slow the ouside bruising is gone but the bump is still their and the doctor had no trouble finding it. I know when I had my implant placed and they did a skin graft in my mouth my dentist said that it didn't take because of my illness. So i don't know what is going on. But my doctor is n't too concerned right now. jean

So far, I've found nothing to help with the pins and needles feeling. And, it sucks! If you're legs are THAT swollen, you shouldn't be at your computer unless you have a laptop and you're laying down with it!! Get those feet up girl!!

Sandi, it's caused by poor blood circulation. Make sure you are drinking enough water and I had my hubby gently massage them for me everyday and took the botanical juice nutrition I talk about on my profile. I no longer get it! I'm not sure which of those 3 things took care of it or if it was the combination of all 3.

The swelling ankles leads me to think that you are holding water, try drinking MORE water...I know that sounds weird, but try it!

Jgamble, it also could have a diffinate correlation with the stuff going on in your mouth!

Did you know that for every tooth we have, they correlate with a body part? there is a tooth that correlates with your heart, one with your breasts, one with your liver, bladdder..etc....

A friend of mine had a heart attack and later found out from his dentist that the toothe that correlates with his heart was bad. I had never heard of this untill then and then I started doing some research on it and sure enough it's true! There is a chart you can get on the web that shows you what toothe represents what body part. I will try to dig out the website for it and post it.

Thanks that would be great. I am going to the dentist tomorrow to get my teeth cleaned so will ask him about it, also. I really dread going there because that is where I use to work but sometimes I just go to show them I don't need them and to be mean and tell the lady that gave me such a bad time how wonderful life is without having to work. But know with the problems of fibro and now they are saying my gums are bleeding and everything, I really dread it I have never had trouble with my mouth before don't have any cavities ,etc. The only reason we did the implant was because when I was young my permanent tooth never grow to full length and I had a crown placed it didn't match my other teeth and I broke of the gold post. I am beginning to wonder if I will need to worry about alzheimer's with the double whammy in my family I may die from other stuff. Jean

I am drinking more water today and I have decided to give up soda again. Actually I felt better when I didn't drink it. My daughter is coming to take me for a walk. Isn't that crazy. Like I am a dog or something. I will be over to take you on a walk again tonight. I think it will help your legs. I have been drinking this stuff called Go Ji Juice from the vitamin store, but this stuff is expensive when you are on a limited budget. I think I just need to get my fat butt up and exercise!!!!
