I think one think Fibromyalgia does for you is make you aware that no-pain is a state of being not just the default. Because unfortunately the default is pain. Right now I have "ants crawling under my skin" which is nerves firing at nothing, feels kind of like a burn and cramp at the same time. This is the worst type of pain there is, to me, because nothing soothes it. Soon my muscles will begin to twitch and I'll basically have to tranquilize myself to sleep to get out of it. I've already started the process, tbh, with 1.5 mg ativan.
This is the type of pain that was so /different/ from anything I'd experienced on a regular basis, that prompted me to finally tell my doc, hey-what's up? When I feel like this, before the must-sleep stage, I want desperately to lie down but if I don't keep distracted, the pain gets worse.
I haven't had a cigarette in 2-3 hours, about to change that.
