I haven't ha da flare up of my fibromyalgia in 6 motnhs, but I ahve got a bad one now.
Iknow that stress is causing it.
However, for 3 dyas now I ahve been very dizzy - when I look at people or am standing up everything is swaying , and havea headache and feel very sick and very very hot.

I haven't been sleeping becasue of the Fibromalgia pain, and am wodnering if the other symptoms are stress/lack of sleep related too?

It sounds like you could have labyrinthitis. You definitely have an infection of some sort if you're feeling very very hot! Can you get to a GP?

I often have periods when I sleep very badly, and I never feel that bad! Only slightly nauseous and a nasty headache at the worst.

Besides labyrinthitis you could have a neck problem. It is not as common but if the symptoms are not improving within a few days, especially after medication from your GP, then consider visiting a chiropractor for a neck check. www.sundialclinics.co.uk
