pains in muscles in arms/fibromyalgia ?

Today I had to go to town and while driving I had the most sharp pain in the muscle part of my upper arms. Once I got home and took med they eased up quite a bit. Is this from fibromyalgia?

I have the same things happen. Sometimes so severe in both arms, i'm unable to drive. Have you been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia?  Was it in both arms- I have heard that the heart can also have this effect on the arms. Especially in women. Get  checked, please. If nothing else- it'll ease your mind.

Fibromyalgia is diagnosed after other things are ruled out and if you have pain in the proper tender points.  You should see a doctor.
