And your doctor is dragging you along ask about it mine went untreated for to long I am finally getting a little of my life back it is like someone pulled open the shade and let the light back in....

Fibromyalgia is a complex, chronic condition which causes widespread pain and fatigue and a variety of other symptoms.
I would like to make people aware of fibromyalgia it is the unseen disease
The primary symptoms of fibromyalgia include widespread musculoskeletal pain, severe fatigue, and disturbed sleep. Fibromyalgia means pain in the muscles, ligaments, and tendons – the soft fibrous tissues in the body.
Most patients with fibromyalgia say that they ache all over. Their muscles may feel like they were pulled or overworked.
Sometimes fibromyalgia symptoms include muscle twitches and burning sensations. More women than men are afflicted with fibromyalgia, and it shows up in people of all ages.Tender points are places on the neck, shoulders, back, hips, arms or legs that hurt when touched. People with fibromyalgia may have other symptoms, such as trouble sleeping, morning stiffness, headaches, and problems with thinking and memory |
