Either he's putting it on for the camera, or someone should phone an ambulance. It just doesn't look genuine :-) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.97.48.95 (talk) 01:07, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

Deleted the photo since it does not distinguish this pain from anything else; the image is arbitrary and does not furnish the viewer with anything more than a distraction
Is "Myalgia" the same as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis or are they different conditions? The Rod 05:21, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
Myalgia is one of the many features of chronic fatigue syndrome, originally called "myalgic encephalomyelitis" (although there is little proof of -itis in either the brain or the spinal cord). The term without modifiers just simply means "pain in muscle". JFW | T@lk 21:26, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
Except for the absence of significant inflammatation of brain and spinal cord in most autopsies of ME patients. JFW | T@lk 18:50, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
Some items of relevance I thought people should know. Tetanus vaccine can induce myalgia as can sudden cessation (known on the street as 'going cold turkey') of opioids (at abusive doses). I should probably mention that in patients taking β1-blockers this is not just possible but probably with tetanus vaccine. DrMorelos 18:51, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
Can't myalgia also be caused by taking Tryptophan supplements (although I believe they are now banned in the US)? --Marshmellis (talk) 22:26, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
It can worsen the muscle state not improve it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.113.184.161 (talk) 15:39, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
