Is Persistant Cough,pain In Sternum,upper Ribcage And Left Leg Connected To Fibromyalgia?
Hi, I have had fibromyalgia....diagnosed 5 years ago. Last 2 months I have had a persistant cough, constant pain in my sternum & upper ribcage, sometime sharp, stabbing pain plus the same sharp stabbing pains in my left leg. Is this just connected to the fibro or possibly something else?
Your chest Condition looks different. Are you also having cough with sputum. And also fever. I think you may be having chest infection. I would recommend you to get chest x ray done. This will tell us what is the issue with your chest. As far as pain in your leg concern this could be fibtomyalgi. I would recommend you to start anantibiotics for your chest Condition as soon as possible.
