Does fibromyalgia cause all over body inflammation?
Absolutely! I have had fibromyalgia for over 30 years and I have the same problems including the rib cage and the bladder. With the rib cage, it is the muscles in between the ribs that get inflamed and tight. I have had it so bad that I couldn't take a deep breath and my physical therapist has had to dig into the muscles to loosen them so that I could breathe! The inflammation in the bladder can range from tenderness to incontinence. I have incontinence unfortunately and at 43 years old it is quite troublesome even though its not a lot. "Other common symptoms - Premenstrual syndrome and painful periods, chest pain, morning stiffness, cognitive or memory impairment, numbness and tingling sensations, muscle twitching, irritable bladder, the feeling of swollen extremities, skin sensitivities, dry eyes and mouth, dizziness, and impaired coordination can occur. Fibromyalgia patients are often sensitive to odors, loud noises, bright lights, and sometimes even the medications they are prescribed." This is from the second link in the source area. Notice that it says "irritable bladder" I feel for you and I know how difficult it is. Is your doctor recommending any treatment? I have had everything from cortisone shots, medications including Methadone, regular physical therapy, intensive chronic pain program and now I am on Lyrica which is helping a lot. I hope this helps answer your question. I hope you feel better and I wish you luck and many blessings. Michelle
Can exercise aggravate a gallbladder condition?
I was told I have sludge in my gallbladder that is causing me pain. I have not exercised for about 3 days and the pain has almost gone. Today I exercised and the pain as returned. I am wondering if I may have a pulled muscle or something. The area on my right abdomen below my ribs is swollen after the exercise.
Does skipping breakfast cause swelling of gallbladder or other such similar problems?
A no breakfast can mess with our tummy and not with our gallbladder. Your tummy will rumble because you are "hangry" that makes you grumpy. Your metabolism may slow down. Your head runs on glucose, the drop in blood sugar from a long fasting state can affect your cognitive function. You're feeling sluggish because you have less energy making it difficult to do some chores. You're more likely to get diabetes because it could mess with your blood sugar.
The doctor said Scoliosis doesn't cause back pain... then why does it hurt so badly?
First you do not say how old you are? Second your scoliosis is mild as they have not given you an degree of curvature. Therefore you can do something about it. Age is important because the younger you are, the easier it will be to correct. You need PT and you need to learn Pilate's. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and Scoliosis, but I started Pilate's, one hour a week for nine months. After the first class I felt like throwing the towel in, I was wrecked, but I kept at it. I learned all the techniques, learned about muscles and how the deep muscles keep the spine in the correct alignment. So once I started learning and improving my muscle mass, realigned my posture, many of my problems vanished. Now I just wish someone had introduced me to Pilate's when I was a teenager, although 30+ years ago, doubt anyone knew about Pilate's. I some how managed to go through beginners class, into intermediate class in the nine months and they then wanted me to go into the advanced class. Yeah right, healthy fit teenagers, half the football team and little old me, who are you kidding? No way I would be able to keep up with the professionals. Now I just do my one hour a week here at home, keeps me fit and keeps my posture correct. Best of Luck
