I have autoinmune desease like symptoms with tendon, joints and muscle pain migrating across my body. It has been 7 years. I find it very hard to get a good night of sleep. I have been tested for autoimmune deseases but all bloodwork came back negative. I have stage 4 endo. Has anyone experienced something similar? Any treatments?
Thank you so so much

Thank you VPal, sorry to hear you are going through this too. I went to a neurologist and he said not related. Also for me, it is not in all places at once, it migrates and feels pretty random like for you. When I manage a night of sleep, symptoms are better so rest helps. Sometimes, I have taken muscle relaxants / antianxiety meds and I manage to sleep better and have less pain as a consequence, I guess it is because of the rest.. in case this helps you too. There was a good article on this in this site, pasted here https://www.myendometriosisteam.com/resources/d.... During my first pregnancy (when endo is tamed) symptoms disappeared so I feel really strongly about this being endo related, specially hearing now from all of you. Please keep me posted and I will do the same if I bump into an answer.
I hope any of this helps. Sending strength your way.

Same here. I have recently removed gluten from my diet and it helped a bit. Hang in there Lou! We will find our remedy!! Stay strong.
Hi ladies, yes I also get this! Sometimes in my hands and fingers which comes and goes but mainly the tops of my arms it literally feels like I have done some sort of major workout! It feels like it could be tendons. Pain killers don't touch it I have tried some gentle stretches but nothing helps, had bloods done last year all normal. I also think it's endo related x
I suffer the same too for years now. All tests came back negative and doctors have looked at me like a hypochondriac. I don’t get pains in all joints and tendons at once but in one place at a time. It can be anywhere but they are seriously sharp pains. I was thinking it could be something like polyneuropathy but after seeing your post maybe it is related to my endometriosis!
