Has anybody experienced aggravated pain level?

another question


Like everybody else, my major symptoms are the flue like body ache, stiffness in the morning, muscle knots, sensitivity to pressure and noise, and burning and nerve pain on the area originally I injured myself.

However, beside having these kinds of symptoms, I have noticed my body registering pain at higher amplitude more than it should be.

Has anybody experienced aggravated pain level?

For example, pain from any skin cut or splint is more than it used to feel like before the fibro and the pains lasts for few weeks.
Also back in december, I began having root canal for one of my tooth, and I had hard time getting rid of the pain and had local anesthetic for 4 time over the period of 3 months. on the last visit finishing up the root canal, I had same anesthetic sensation on the same area when anesthetic wasn't done. my dentist didn't understand what was going on. It eventally went away, but it was something that wasn't supposed to happen and somehow my body was reacting to external pressure.

It feels as all the pain recepters and sensory receptors are hypersensitive and reacting abnormally beside having background pain level.
I was wondering if this is a common symptom.

thank you for reading~

Re: Has anybody experienced aggravated pain level?

Ohhhh, yes. Completely. Things that used to not hurt me very bad hurt me to the point of tears anymore. Paper cuts make my eyes well with tears and bruises hurt worse and longer. Little scrapes burn for ages. When I get hit or run into stuff (I am dizzy a lot and run into things a lot), the pain lasts so long. When a finger gets bent back or a toe gets stubbed, it feels like it's broken. (I've had broken fingers, I know how bad it is) I definitely notice a huge difference over the past few years . . .

And I've read quite a bit of research over the stuff too. Researchers think that our body makes too much of the chemical that regulates pain and therefore, our pain is amplified. It's just research though. Sounds good however.

Re: Has anybody experienced aggravated pain level?

Oh my goodness...I am not alone? I run into the edge of a wall with the snap of a two fingers. On vacation my brother who lives a distance away had not seen my bouts with fibro, witnessed the clumsy stumbling, running into something, etc.... Explain, explain, explain...doesn't that drive you crazy? I hit my ankle into the edge of a bed and thought that I had bruised my ankle much worse then it was. The pain took forever to go away. I came up with blister like areas in my mouth, but when I got home...they went away. Not sure what that was. Gum problems, yup, teeth even sometimes hurt. Migraines...now, not before.

Ooppppppps getting carried away. You are not alone. I wish someone would come up with something that were not alone with sharing the good news ( ; Have a great weekend and wishing for a pain free one.

Being clumsy and running into to stuff or falling is a symptom of FM? I do that all the time and it is becoming more and more pronounced. Yes my pain feels worse when I bruise, get papercuts or scrapes, also burns (I'm a chef).

What is the chemical? Can we decrease it with something?
