A member asked:
I have fibromyalgia and degenerative disc disease, with 2 cervical and 2 lumbar disc protruding. i am having jerky involuntarily muscle spasms in arms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fibromyalgia won't: cause symptoms like these, altho a disc impinging on a cervical nerve root might. Regardless, what you're describing isn't normal and should be evaluated by a doctor. Best wishes. Dr. Anne.
