Symptoms?
Posted: 10-15-07 12:22pm

My 42 year old girlfriend has had pain in her arms for a year now. We have been to numerous doctors but no one seems to be able to make a diagnosis. We were wondering if Fibro can affect just the forearms and palms of the hands? They have looked at carpel tunnel, arthritis and tendinitis but don't think that those are the culprits. It is to the point that the pain is excrutiating now and we don't know what to do. If anyone has any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.

Fibro can effect any part of the body. I think that the problem with Fibro is that doctors dont want to admit that it is a physical problem. since they dont have it they cant understand it. have you tried a chiropractor at all?
