It is very interesting that you ask this. I had cataract surgery in October and in January until now, my Fibro symptoms have increased dramatically. I would never have made this connection. Is this your experience or have you seen something that confirms this can happen?

Hi
Yes I believe it can happen I've been doing a lot of research online and it makes sense because you're nervous system is abruptly invaded when you have cataract surgery even though it's quick procedure it can affect fibro big time
