Wondering if anyone has had this happen to them. I sometimes use a cane to walk when my knee hurts (need them both replaced) and I went to take a step the other day and it was as if I got an electric shock through my whole body. Just like when you accidentally touch the plug when you are plugging in an electrical cord. I explained it to the neuron doc the other day and he didn't really say much. I am frustrated and a little scared, I am newly diagnoised, help!!!!

I know a pinched nerve can do this as I have had it in my neck. It feels just like you plugged into an outlet.

Thanks, this just sucks, seems every day it's something else and I try to stay positive and not get into the dark side of it all.

Have you been checked for rheumatoid arthritis? You can have a negative RA factor and still be positive. You may want to see a doc specializing in osteopathy and a Reumatologist.

I have a rheumatologist, he did all the test. That is how I was diagnosed. This is why I am here to talk to others, that is why I asked if others had this happen to them

There are two tender points on the inside of the knee...is this where your pain starts? We are trying to help but electric shock-like pain to the knee is not a usual symptom of Fibro. Not saying it isn't possible though.
