Extractions: Back to ACR Fact Sheets Fibromyalgia WHAT IS FIBROMYALGIA? Fibromyalgia, sometimes called fibrositis, is a common condition that is associated with widespread aching, stiffness and fatigue, and originates in muscles and soft tissues. People with fibromyalgia are found to have multiple tender points in specific muscle areas. Most individuals complain of aching and stiffness in areas around the neck, shoulders, upper back, lower back and hip areas. Many patients have no underlying disorders while others who develop fibromyalgia may have conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis , spinal arthritis or Lyme disease . Some people have symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome, tension headaches and numbness or tingling of the extremities. CAUSE The cause of fibromyalgia is unknown. There may be a link between fibromyalgia and a sleep disturbance, since most patients have disruptive sleep patterns. Other factors that may contribute to the development of fibromyalgia or sustain symptoms are psychological stress, immune or endrocrine abnormalities, or biochemical abnormalities in the central nervous system, such as altered serotonin levels. HEALTH IMPACT Fibromyalgia is common, affecting approximately two percent of the U.S. population.

It's a disorder of the informational substances such as neurotransmitters, hormones, peptides, and other biochemical messengers which regulate and run the systems of the body and mind. It causes hypersensitivity to all sorts of stimuli, so it can amplify pain.

Extractions: A Physician's Guide to Fibromyalgia Syndrome Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is an under diagnosed disorder of unknown etiology affecting over 5% of the patients in a general medical practice (Campbell 1983) and an estimated 2-4% of the general population (Wolfe 1993), women more often than men. Patients complain that they ache all over. A large number of other symptoms are often present, particularly fatigue, morning stiffness, sleep disturbance, paresthesias, and headaches (see table 2). On examination, areas of focal tenderness called tender points can be demonstrated in characteristic locations (table 3). Most patients can be helped substantially with treatment. A comprehensive review of the many theories of the etiology of FMS is beyond the scope of this paper. While there is still not a majority of FMS researchers who support any one theory, significant progress is being made in identifying an etiology, and much useful evidence has been collected. FMS was first described as an inflammatory condition ( Gowers 1904 ). When no evidence of inflammation could be found and an association was noted with depression and stress, the concept of "psychogenic rheumatism" was advanced

Extractions: The Empowerment Station [ Home ] Articles Books Welcome! This site is dedicated to and was created for fibromyalgia, CFIDS, and other chronic illness sufferers who believe the in mind, body, spirit connection. It consists of a compilation of messages and book recommendations that I have created regarding living with a chronic illness. I have had FMS, MPS, dysautonomia, and CFIDS for over 13 years. I started to write small articles about the lessons I have learned from living with an illness about three years ago and sharing them on the FMS board on AOL. When I realized that not everyone wanted to hear positive messages, I decided to e-mail the articles only to those who were interested in reading themand an e-mail list was created. The list of articles and people who wanted to read them grew too large to handle through e-mail, and so this site was created. I continue to learn from and about this illness, and so I continue to write about subjects such as keeping a positive outlook, relying on spirituality to guide us through rough times, and also to relay helpful advice that I have read from many different sources. I hope that everyone can gain some comfort, empowerment and love from these messages. I enjoy feedback and suggestions, so please feel free to e-mail me anytime.

This disorder might be hereditary (run in families), so you may have family members with similar symptoms. What are the symptoms of fibromyalgia? Increased sensitivity to pain is the main symptom of fibromyalgia. Many other symptoms also occur in people with this disorder. Symptoms may come and go. You may have some degree of constant pain, but the pain may get worse vary in response to activity, stress, weather changes and other factors. You may have a deep ache or a burning pain. You may have muscle tightening or spasms. Many people have migratory pain (pain that moves around the body).
