I think it is called Ataxia or feeling drunk when you walk. I have been a sure footed runner for many years - ran alpine trail races and now when I walk I can feel myself having uncertain footing and wobbling legs.

I am very stiff so that may be part of it. Is this a common fibro thing....

Thanks for responding

I have a tendency to stumble and trip a lot on flare days. My cordinations is way off on flare days.

Yes I get that some days as well. Probably the second most worrisome symptom for me.

I have not had this symptom. If this is happening all of the time be sure to let your doctor know about it. We have many of the same symptoms as other illnesses so we need to get everything ruled out.

Yes, I get this occasionally in my legs. I almost feel my legs are going to buckle.

Yes, me too! And I absolutely hate it. For me, it's pretty much all the time...but I attributed it to my nerve damage from my ruptured disc. Who knows. Not a good feeling, anyway.
