I Have Hundreds Of Hard Pea-sized Knots All Over The Tendons In My Legs

i have hundreds of hard pea-sized knots all over the tendons in my legs (especially behind my knees) and lumps all along the sides of my bones. The lumps on my tendons are very sore. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 1998.

Hi well come to HCM.
From your description it looks like neurofibromas, and do not need any treatment
except when it causes some severe symptoms on surrounding structure, and than
the treatment is surgical excision. Thanks
