This is extreme weakness, much worse than any I had in previous decades of severe fibro and CFS.
I have both PAIN, AND weakness, and trouble with reaching my arms in any direction, and using my wrists, hands, and fingers, of both hands.
Over less than 6 months, I have become unable to dress myself without help, and even difficult with help. I cannot wash all the areas of my own body, I cannot do any handcrafts , I have pain and difficulty in grasping a handle or a fat pen, just to write a short sentence. Or reaching onto the table to pick up a piece of paper or a lightweight cup.
ANYONE have any input or ideas about this? It is very limiting and worrisome, and seems to be progressive.
It even hurts and is hard to move slightly, when motionless in bed. And hard to move my hand slightly, or the bed sheet. I cannot pick up anything that falls to the floor.
All suggestions welcome, as well as understanding.
