Symptoms and Treatment in Fibromylgia
Author: Groshan Fabiola

Being a chronic disorder, fibromyligia has a lot of ways of affecting the body but the most common way that it makes its self present is by making the patient feel pain and fatigue through out the body along with some other symptoms. One of the strangest things about this disease is that is has absolutely no visible effect or symptom on the outside of the body; the symptoms being felt only by the patient has lead the people to call this the invisible disability.

The pain that is felt by patients in the case of fibromylgia has been described as being intense and with a burning sensation; the most common description given by patients was being a head to toe pain. The intense and strange feelings that the patient was having often confused the doctors in apllying the right diagnosis. The pain was so intense that the person described as feeling it deep down in the muscle and joints and sometimes even the bones seemed to be hurting. Trying to understand and explain as best you can the symptoms you are having can really help the doctor in placing a right diagnoses and a treatment for the illness.

Fighting this disorder can vary a lot from person to person, the fact being that the level of pain that each patients is feeling can be very different in people. While for some the pain is felt as mild others have to deal with intense severe aching pain that is felt from head to toes.

Stiffens is also another pain that can severely disturb our normal way of life. This is most present and felt at its highest levels immediately after waking up from a night's sleep or trying to move after a prolonged period of physical inactivity. Certain other factors can also affect the severity of the stiffens the patient is feeling: sudden and drastic changes in temperature and humidity.

Another disturbing symptom in fibromylgia would be head aches and increased blood tension. The area most common to be hit by this bursts of pain has been said to be the temples and right behind the eyes. Another unusual place where the patient may feel the pain would be the joint where the jaw meets with the rest of the head. This also produces facial pain.

A very unpleasant fact in people suffering from this disorder is that they tend to always suffer from sleep disturbances. They might often feel very tired because of this although the amount of sleep had by them is normal and the same as in healthy people. Falling asleep or keeping at sleep may prove a very difficult task for some. Why this happens in fibromylgia patients is still unknown.

The symptoms are so diverse that the patient is possible to suffer from gastrointestinal problems also. Abdominal pain, digestive disturbance and bloating are only some of the unpleasant feelings that patients have to put up with. Constipation and diarrhea are also somewhat of a problem for them.
