I was diagnosed with Fibro about 18 months ago, having suffered for years with stiffness and aching all over my body.  I have also had for a number of years periodically allergy type symptoms with sore, itchy eyes  and paths if itchyness running over my forehead and to the crown of my scalp.  I have tried to identify possible causes with no luck so far and have taken over the counter tablets for allergies, with no success. We have cut down trees we thought were causing the problem, it happens all through the year, at home and away from home. These episodes are getting much more frequent.  I have also had changes in my sense of smell and taste and wondered if all this is part of Fibro??
