Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia refers to muscle and connective tissue pain. This disorder manifests multiple medically unexplained symptoms including chronic pain; pain experienced from a gentle touch to the skin; chronic fatigue; stiffness in the joints; insomnia or sleep disturbance; difficulty breathing or swallowing; abnormalities of the bladder or bowel; sensations of tingling on the skin or numbness; and types of cognitive dysfunction.

Many people diagnosed with Fibromyalgia also have psychiatric disorders and given the lack of medically explained symptoms it is a controversial ailment. Symptoms of Fibromyalgia may overlap with symptoms of chronic pain disorder and chronic fatigue syndrome - different sufferers will experience different levels and types of symptoms. Historically it has been considered a musculoskeletal disease or neuropsychiatric condition, however recent medical research has revealed abnormalities in the central nervous system. There is no known cure for this debilitating disorder but some treatments (varying from medical to behavioural and physical) have proven to alleviate symptoms for some sufferers.
