Do you have difficulty identifying dangerous pain?

Sometimes when I go to sleep I feel like I am gonna die. I have been getting this alot lately

Yes I have it also

It's terrible to suffer from. I have found some relief through pain management. Sometimes the pain is unmanageable still 💔

Hi @fibrome

How are you doing today?

This symptom does indeed sound dangerous. I hope your dog bite wasn't serious.

Let me see if anyone else has a similar symptom.

Do your pain receptors mis-read signals? How do you interpret inconsistent pain? Do you have any checks in place to make sure your body isn't in danger?

Take care,

I’ve had chronic vaginal pain for years. I’ve seen every specialist and have had MRI’s, CAT scans without success of a diagnosis. Had a ganglion nerve block and 4 pudendal nerve shots. I’ve taken every pain med available without relief.
As a last resort I was told to get Keratine infusions. Unfortunately they aren’t available in my area. Medical marijuana is my last hope. Not sure if it’ll work or how it works even. I’ll hopefully get a state card in about a month. Fingers crossed!

I can relate I have peripheral neuropathy PMR and MD sometime a fly landing on my arm or face can cause my system to really over react but I can gouge myself with a knife or screwdriver and until blood flows down my leg or arm I don’t notice

Hi fibome,

It's 11:14pm I read your post & I felt the need to respond. I am 65, have fibro, lupus, other auto immune things, other issues, sjorgens, hypothyroidism & more etc... I have had it for 25 yrs. I do exercise with all this "junk" for lack of a better term, I'm writing in my digital diary & stopped to reflect. I work hard in our home, 2 story 6 bed, 2 bath...... upstairs, I hardly climb the stairs, bcuz that was how I became disabled, a fall from stairs to a basement apartment I rented underneath a couple of old Italian couple, in my neighborhood I grew up in in Reno nv with my new old hubby Albie, coming home from our honeymoon, with a suitcase hitting me the whole way down the stairs. Basta oh yeah I'm re acquaintance myself with a new old language Italian. Gotta go end of movie get to watch it all PERFECTIONISM? Moral of my story fast forward I'm not feeling as horrible daily, I do chores harder than I've done in yrs. Have fun while doing it, with a few explosives in between, I'm not saying I'm glad to be disabled but I deal with it, pain, accomodations, are now necessary but ifuntion. Take care, breathe, do what you can , rest repeat sending love & prayers fellow fibrofighter. Robin Grateful Lady
