Yeah... I know, right.  Somehow I get the feeling that there's an awful lot of similarities between bodies because the same systems are getting overloaded and freaking out.  Just my thinking and it's wonky right now but it sounds feasible to me right now.

There are several illnesses that have the same symptoms like Fox said the systems get overloaded. I got my Booster Vax and now every muscle and joint feels bad as well I was battling chest pain until I took my puffer a few times.

Once I knew a little about fibro, I realized its kissing cousin is CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrom) If you have one, you probably have the other. If you have more pain - It's fibro. If you have more fatigue - It's CFS. The symptoms are almost identical, just in a different order. Both are lifelong conditions.

Add in a third lobe to the bunch... MCS... multiple chemical sensitivity.  It's the lobe where your symptoms are exacerbated when you are exposed to trigger chemicals and reduce when not exposed.  The basic body gone wild stuff in the middle is shared between the three of them.

Fox I have a question about MCS I am asking here because I have a feeling others may have similar concerns. I have over the years been around lots of Bad smells but one thing that makes me feel overwhelmingly sick is walking past a place like Bodyworks or specialty shops as the chemicals throw my body into extreme headaches and wooziness. If I go to a mall I always do a wide loop it isn't a lot of smells that are this severe but these specialty shops are severe.
