I got a diagnosis of fibromyalgia just over three weeks ago (pain and exhaustion ramped up seriously to the point where I couldn't carry on working.)
For just under two weeks, my left arm has been tingling most of the time (not all the time but I have no clue what set it off). About an hour ago I realised that the back of my left thigh is numb. I can feel some sensation but it doesn't hurt if I pinch it. (I've also noticed the right side of my chin is tingling, but I'm trying to ignore that for now as it could be me having my knickers in a twist.)
I will contact my GP surgery tomorrow (and will probably have to fight to even get to speak to someone - I spoke to a practitioner shortly after my arm started to tingle and they completely ignored me when I mentioned it).
Can anyone offer me any experiences or advice please?
I know what's happening isn't an emergency, so I won't be troubling anyone with it tonight, but this is all very new for me anyway and these new symptoms have got me scared.
