No, it's not. I know two people who have it and another one with
neuralgia - but theirs is not as debilitating as yours seems to be.

I also have neuropathy, venous insufficiency, scoliosis and psoriatic
arthritis. So it can be hard to suss out the source of the pain.

Scoliosis might be related. Something already slipped, slipped worse.

I used to have normal shoulders. At age 40 it changed and now one is a
good 2 inches higher than the other.

Could be. Oddly enough, I rarely have back pain. My shoulders are off as
are my hips. My spine is an "S" shape but they didn't catch it soon enough
to really do anything about it. Yes, they probably could have attempted to
do something about it but it may well not have helped. I had a roommate who
had very severe scoliosis. They had to put rods in her back. She was in
constant pain, could barely move her neck and couldn't bend over. So had
they attempted to do something, I could have wound up like that.

Same for my bad knee which I no longer seem to have. The Dr. said that the
operation they could do at the time would only create more scar tissue. The
vascular surgeon said the problems with the knee stem from the bad veins.
The blood can't get to the muscles, the muscles get weak, the knee slips out
of place. Since being on the treatment for the veins, I have only had two
incidents of the knee slipping out of place. Used to happen at least once a
month.

Correct, not fibrom. It;s an almost picture perfect vision of spinal
issues. I do not know if Fibrom leads to that though. Doesnt matter
even if it does lead to it. She need an MRI, lower and upper.

I looked up the Degenerative Disc Disease and that does not sound like my
symptoms. But I could be wrong. And no, Fibro has nothing to do with
discs.
