Well, as I understand it, they call 'mystery nerve pain' fibromyalgia for want of a better word. In other words, no-one is really sure what causes it or what it is. There are many theories but nothing for sure, so as I had this and it went when I followed a regime to get rid of herpes, I have assumed that this is what it is. I had stabbing pains in the flabby parts under the upper arm; round my ribs and in the upper part of my back, coming round into my waist (at its worst). However, I could get it in my legs as well. This also caused my skin to be so tender I couldn't touch it. All I know is, it hurt like hell! Following the anti-herpes regimen it has gone, so I have assumed that is what it was. Dee

I thought you were relating M.E. to the herpes virus, not fibromyalgia. I'm lucky I don't have fibro. I know, however that fibro has very specific points in the body it attacks (You'll find loads of charts if you google it). When you had your pains was it those points it was in or was it more generalised. Kirsteen
