hi, i think i have fibromyalgia, i have a lot of muscle pain, but no sleeping issuwa. I was wondering if this is possible. It seems like everyone that has fibromyalgia has really bad sleeping problems. I can sleep well through the night at least 7 hours. Anyone have fibro, but no sleep problems

you should consider yourself lucky not to have sleep problems(but not lucky to have fibro:D ) That is one of my main issues right now. I dont think ive had a decent nights sleep in weeks. I take klonopin and benedryl to help me fall asleep. If i fall asleep, i can usually sleep ok. But alot of times i am up all night

I have fibro and dont really have problems sleeping. I dont feel really energetic when i wake up in the morning, but i can fall alseep ok. everybodys symptoms are so different that i think, just because you dont have sleep issues that you dont have fibromialgia. I think youve got to have the tender point and pains in specific places for it to be considered fibromialgia

general

I also thought that sleep problems were pretty much a main symptom of fibromyalgia, but everyone seems to be really different and not fit into any one pattern. I wake up alot during the night and dont really feel rested when i get up in the morning. Ive been looking for somethng to take that is not a perscription. I take valerian sometimes and that seems to help
