about 4 months ago I tok a pretty bad fall - went to a few dr’s and was diagnosed with severe whiplash injuries and cervical spine nerve damage among other spinal issues. For a while, it was just my upper body that was bothering me - my right arm was getting that ‘pins & needles’ feeling and my whole body feels like it is a giant bruise, but it is getting worse and seems to be creeping down to my lower body now

I went to physical therapy for about 2 months, had a full series of spinal injections/epidural injections and am seeing a chiropracter 2x per week. I have tried a million meds, now taking vicodin.. it still doesn’t get rid of the pain, but the stronger narcotics make me pretty sick so I’m steering clear of them

2 of my dr’s (orthopedist and pain mgmt) have said that they are going to moniter me for fibromyalgia since it has been 4 months and nothing seems to be getting rid of teh pain and tenderness issues.
Could the fall or whiplash injuries have triggered or caused fibromyalgia?
