One sided pain anyone?

Most of my pain/soreness/burning/tingling seems to be pretty much concentrated on my left side. I had a cat scan done to rule out ms or tumors or anything and all that came back was that I had a sinus infection. Most of my issues in my left shoulder, armpit, arm, neck, ribs and left back. At times it is in my left hips and legs. I have been to a cardiologist who ruled out any heart issues. It basically feels like I have went to the gym after not going for a long time and my muscles and such are sore on that side. Anyone else experince this one sided stuff?

I, too, have noticed more left sided pain since doing my daily tracking. Especially in the lower quadrants (hips on down). My upper body seems to be more concentrated pain (neck, arms, back) but the pain is still on both sides.

Sometimes I have noticable pain on one side of my body.  Should someone touch me on the other side, that is when I usually will notice some achiness there too.  With fibro everyone is different and the symptoms can vary day-to-day.  I would say that what you mention would not be uncommon.  I'm glad you've had the testing done so you don't have the worry of it possibly being something else.

Take care of yourself.
