I'm due for TMJ replacement and have probable FM

Hi there, my particular situation is that I'm due for TMJ replacement but, have deferred it because the rest of my body hurts so much, I can't face the TMJ replacement. I am trying to get a diagnosis for Fibromyalgia while TMJ replacement is all put on hold. As many of you will know, the two conditions are often linked. So here's the plan: my Maxillofacial surgeon will phone me in the New Year to discuss, meanwhile I will persevere in getting a diagnosis and some relief of FM symptoms (sore joints, IBS, muscles tender to touch, sharp stabbing pains, etc. Does this also descibe you?

Hi Sarah. I don’t have a diagnosis yet for Fibro as my doc is still running through every test imaginable first. But what you described in this post is 100% what I have been feeling. Did you ever get a fibromyalgia diagnosis?
