legs feel like they're going to snap

[fuzzywallpaper]

I'm 34 and was diagnosed earlier this month with FM. Currently I am dealing with pain in my left leg that runs from hip to ankle with random variations of pain levels. It will change from one minute to the next but doesn't seem to want to fully go away ( It started 3 days ago). The pain can be described as if my bones are going to snap. Nothing seems to help eleviate the pain and the slightest vibration of somebody walking past me can severely increase the pain. Is this part of FM and what can I do to get it to stop if anything? Or could this be a symptom of something else that I should insist my Dr help me with? I have had this pain a few times before in my right wrist, right arm and right shoulder. When I mentioned it to my Dr, he just disreguarded it. I'm very close to going into the ER for some kind of pain management.

Thank you in advance,
Mela

P.S. Also Cymbalta is another medication, but some people swear that Savella has totally stopped all their fibromyalgia.

Also this from the question, ."How bad does it get?"  
Answer from Cashion, "I have fibromyalgia and so does my mother. From what I have learned it can stay the way it is now for the rest of your life or it can get worse. Try to stay on a daily routine sleep when your tired and don't overdue yourself, the best you can do is take good care of yourself hoping to help it not get worse. Very true, as bad as it gets for you."

I'm surprised that your doctor didn't prescribe any of the medications that are approved to help fibromyalgia, such as Savella and Lyrica.

Call up their medical office and ask for a prescription to be called in to a pharmacy.

Hey fuzzywallpayper,
Welcome to the forum.
Anything goes with FMS as it not a disease, but a syndrome of symptoms.
Unfortunately there's no effective therapy according to conventional medicine other than some symptom management.
My personal view is that there are tools and approaches outside allopathic medicine,that are offering great promise in effectively dealing with FMS.
I'm presently and continuously working and improving my Fibro-Free Program.
It incorporates Hypnotherapy, Reiki, Eft, Energy Psychotherapy, Holistic Allergy elimination, Holistic Nutrition and Regression therapy.
These various modalities address the various aspects of FMS such as
Pain, Fatigue, Sleep, Emotions.
If there's one modality that stands out more, I would have to say Hypnotherapy, as it works very efficiently at very deep levels.
So if you are open to alternative therapies, then consider seeking out
a reputable Hypnotherapist-preferably one that has a Fibro-Hypno Program.
It usually consists of a dozen sessions, spread out over 3-4 months and then  periodically a booster session every 6 months or so.
During the first few sessions, you will learn to do self-hypnosis, as this becomes a valueable tool for effective daily FMS management.
Let me know if you need anymore details.
Wishing you well.
