Fibromyalgia Symptoms
While the cause of fibromyalgia remains unknown, the symptoms include widespread pain throughout the body over an extended length of time. A diagnosis of fibromyalgia usually means that there is a history of pain 3 months or longer that cannot be attributed to another condition that might mimic fibromyalgia. Other symptoms include abnormal pain processing, trouble sleeping, stiffness, numbness, cognition problems, memory loss, weakness, and depression.
There is currently no cure for fibromyalgia, and symptoms may worsen with time or with a psychological or physical trauma. Treatment options for those diagnosed with fibromyalgia include pain management, medication, and therapy. Often, fibromyalgia is diagnosed in patients with other conditions including anxiety, depression, irritable bowel syndrome, or migraines.
