Does Fibromyalgia Or Non-diabetic Neuroma Cause Small Lumps All Over My Body?

I have several places on my body where I have under the skin lumps. on the tops of my thighs and around my hips the largest one is on my left buttock, I also have one on the base of my foot in the arch. I have had an ultrasound of that largest one and the Doc thinks it necrotic. My issue is I have them more and more cropping up. I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and non-diabetic neuroma. Do you think these conditions would contribute to this issue who do I see to have this further investigated. I am a bit concerned because they seem to be showing up in many more places Thanks

HI,Welcome to HCM.
Cause of multiple lumps -
Based on the facts of your query,you seems to suffer from-multiple lumps with fibromyalgia with it.
As the USG study was inconclusive and suggested necrotic ? origin of the tumor,FNAC Biopsy with HPR would resolve this ambiguity.
I would suggest you to take a Second Opinion from a Surgeon, who would do the Excision Biopsy of one of these tumors and would fix the ambiguity on its tissue of origin and on its cause-whether benign or cancerous.
In my opinion,if the cause of the tumor is confirmed,then a necrotic nature is a matter of cause for the fibromyalgia in your case.As hisotpath study is yet to be done, no point in worrying unless you get the FNAC Biopsy report of these tumors.
Hope this replies your query and would help you to resolve your worry.
