I've recently been to the nurse to have some bloods for my diabetic review taken and noticed on the screen (as I cannot look at needles when someone else is using them!) that at my last appointment with the doctor he was going to discuss cheiroarthropathy with me. He discussed fibromyalgia but didn't unfortunately discuss cheiroarthropathy. Does anyone have this and what are your symptoms? I have done the dreaded google search but it's better to hear from people's personal experience! I suffer from joint pain, muscle pain, muscle stiffness and very audible joint clicking/cracking/popping. I will speak to my diabetic nurse when I see her however. Thanks!

In cheiroarthropathy, there is a significant amount of reduced mobility...do you experience this too? Cause if you don't, it's not cheiroarthropathy.
