Maineville, OH

Does anyone else have skin that is sensitive to touch (without obvious cause)? I don't have this problem all of the time, it comes and goes. But, it is so strange and annoying... Gentle touches on my arms or legs hurt!! It feels kind of like when you touch a bruise (but, there is no bruise...).

Is this one of those weird, unexplained symptoms of endo, or something else?

Yes. On my thighs. They airways feel bruised, but they aren't. I thought I was the only one.

That's also a REALLY common problem with fibre myalgia! You should ask your doctor about it!

Yes! It's so annoying! It's like a bruise or sunburn all over. My arms, thighs, hips, torso, shoulders, back, etc. What is the deal?!
