Yes that's where mine first started but that was when I was 13 I'm now 44 and unfortunately it's just got worse and worse and has spread .since I had my last child 4 years ago my hands and wrists are so bad now my fingers look deformed and bloody well feel it (lol) and just been told I have it in my jaw so got it everywhere they say I'm rare my mum would've said I'm more then rare lol dnt give in , I know how much it hurts but life is worth fighting this with all that you have ,and u will see you have strength where you thought u didn't XXX
P.s on Amazon they have gadgets at reasonable prices to get to help with the kitchen duties and really anywhere in your home just to make your life a little easier and keep being independent,sending gentle hugs your way xx

It could also be attributed to the gabapentin. It can cause swelling making your hands stiff. I had to stop taking it. I have fibro too. Without the cymbals it hurts to much to walk. I am on pain meds however it only takes the edge off.

Thank you and I do agree

Definitely see a rheumatologist. The finger stiffness is not fibromyalgia.

I have not worked since June 2017 AND NOW DO volunteer work as I cannot work full time I get the dole and I feel good because it is very hard work as it is doing a lot of cleaning of the Accommodation center where people from rural areas stay while coming to see specialist for medical.
