My 42 year old girlfriend has had pain in
her arms for a year now. We have been to
numerous doctors but no one seems to be
able to make a diagnosis. We were
wondering if Fibro can affect just the
forearms and palms of the hands? They have
looked at carpel tunnel, arthritis and
tendinitis but don't think that those are
the culprits. It is to the point that the
pain is excrutiating now and we don't know
what to do. If anyone has any suggestions
it would be greatly appreciated.

Fibro can effect any part of the body. I
think that the problem with Fibro is that
doctors dont want to admit that it is a
physical problem. since they dont have it
they cant understand it. have you tried
a chiropractor at all?
