It can vary by person.

I believe burngin pain is a sign of inflammatioin -and not Fibromyalgia as FMS does NOT have inflammation. If you have burnign pain be sure to be checked (including blood tests) for inflammation.

You can get muscle twitched-but not spasms-

Spasms are really caused by FMS although they can be a complication due to muscle tightness.

I get sharp pain that I describe as my nerve misfiring. I also get wide spread aches and deep intense pain.

The pain can vary throughout the day, but can also be non stop for months at a time.

My doctor told me she suspects that I have fibromyalgia and my pain is in my hips and legs. It feels like my thigh bones are going to explode. It also feels like someone has a blow torch up against my thigh bones. So they are hot and pressured... the only way i can explain my pain is that my bones hurt. Tightening my muscles trigger more pain. This pain is constant, dull, annoying, and fluctuates in intensity.

There are few things more frustrating than suffering from an illness or symptom that no one else understands. Take chronic fatigue syndrome for example. Many family and friends of the patient simply don鈥檛 understand why their loved one, who appears to get plenty of sleep, can complain of feeling tired all the time. It isn鈥檛 uncommon for loved ones to accidentally make feelings of depression worse by accusing the patient of overreacting or embellishing their symptoms. That can lead to resentment on the part of the patient and even a decreased interest in caring for their own health. If you suffer from one of the chronic fatigue diseases or have a loved one that does, there are some places you can find additional information about these little understood disorders.

* Your doctor
* Online medical resources
* Specific disease organizations

For the most personalized and patient-specific information the best person to talk to is your doctor. He or she will be able to give the patient and their families, with permission, the believed problem, what will help with the fatigue, and ways for others to respond to and treat the patient. Sometimes all it takes is for a loved one to hear the words from a health care professional鈥檚 mouth to really get the idea of what is happening with their friend or family member. It is also helpful for the patient and their family to have detailed instructions for caring for the affected person.

You can鈥檛 take care of your condition correctly or explain it to others if you have doubts yourself about your problem. Doctors only have so much time to spend with each of their patients, so it may be necessary to take to the computer waves and do some research on the subject yourself. The biggest thing to watch out for is the respectability of the website you are trusting. The last thing that will help with any of the aspects of the illness is to get something about the treatment or cause of the disease incorrect. On the other hand, having a reputable source to quote to those who don鈥檛 understand is always a benefit.

If you have been diagnosed with a specific chronic fatigue syndrome, it鈥檚 far easier to get the information you seek. For example looking up fibromyalgia syndrome will give more specific results than a generic search for fatigue syndromes.

During flare ups I have constant,dull,throbbing and achy pain. When I choose ( when living with Fibromyalgia, everyday is about making choices) to do some kind of repetitious activity then the pain intensifies.
