Neurological problems
by rony1942, Jul 16, 2008 10:17PM
I have had fibromyalgia for 17 years and never before had the kind of neurological symptoms experiencing now.
History leading up to problems: was diagnosed with some bulging discs in lumbar spine, but not severe enough to push on spinal chord. Experienced numbness and pain in legs. After 6 months of treatment by a chiropracter to restore lumbar curve. (Exrays show an 18mm change in lumbar curve) which included many special exercises everyday, I have developed following symptoms: more extreme numbness in lower legs, arms, which changes with severity, drawing up of muscles in legs and arms. Muscle in right had draws up like claw sometimes, charlie horses in toes sometimes, incontinence, temporary memory loss more severe than ever, brain fog that comes and goes more severe than before.
Does this sound like it could all be fibromyalgia, or should I be concerned about something else? Thanks for your help!

I would see a neurologist. That sounds like more than fibromyalgia to me.
