For the past couple of months I have been waking up in the morning so stiff! It usually eases off in a few hours.
I originally thought there was a link between taking my birth control before I go to bed , however I googled ( of course I did) and nop nothing!
What did come up though was Fibromylagia? This seems a very misunderstood disease however the symptoms are very similar to those of anxiety!
Im not sure if I worry during the night and that's why im so stiff I also have itching which starts at night and disturbs my sleep. Of course this leads me to believe I do infact have lymphoma , the disease I fear all along. However, I started itching two and half years ago...rationally I would be ill by now?
Another interesting point made was fibromyalgia patients tend to have an intolerance to alcohol in the sense that it makes pain worse, something I have dealt with for over two years ( hence the lymphoma fears).
Does anyone have some thoughts? I cant face going to my doctor with another illness lol.
the chances of me having lymphoma are low right? I hope so.
Not sure if I fancy being diagnosed with Fibromyalgia either, or it could be like the doctor said ,,, anxiety :shrug:
thanks guys,
