Facts about Fibromyalgia
Basically, Fibromyalgia (FM) is a disorder classified by the presence of chronic widespread pain and tactile allodynia. Patients with this disorder are also typically affected by a number of symptoms other than pain, including debilitating fatigue, abnormal sleep architecture, functional bowel disturbances and a variety of neuropsychiatric problems including cognitive dysfunction, anxiety and depressive symptoms. The main cause of fibromyalgia is unknown. Fibromyalgia can, but does not always, start as a result of some trauma such as a traffic accident, major surgery, or disease. Some evidence shows that Lyme Disease may be a trigger of fibromyalgia symptoms. Another study suggests that more than one clinical entity may be involved, ranging from a mild, idiopathic inflammatory process to clinical depression. So, guys you should watch out for those sign and symptoms. If you have some of those then you should consult your physician immediately. Remember that “prevention is better that cure”.
