My migraine pain is entirely on the left side -- and that often happens with all types of migraine. But with the exception of severe fibromyalgia attacks, all of my muscle pain is also on the left side. I am referring to revolving, 24/7 symptoms in my left torso of aching, numbness, tingling, near-paralysis, inability to lift my arm, stabbing pain, what I call "chainsaw" pain, and the odd (grisly) sensation that my leg and arm are roasting on a spit.
Doctors have usually attributed all of this to hemiplegic migraine, but I am wondering of anyone with ME/CFS has also found that pain in the extremeties favours one side or the other.
