I was diagnosised with fibro in my twenties and it has always been the pain and the feeling of being rundown. But for the past couple of weeks I have had a flare and have had a new symptom.

I have a doctor's appointment in about a week so I will probably mention it then but in the meantime I thought I would ask here.
