Hello, With reference to your query regarding that you have been diagnosed as fibromyalgia and have been taking various medications to have some relief. This condition is a long term one which causes pain all over the body. It causes widespread pain and extreme tiredness. The exact cause is not known, but they believe that there is disturbance in pain messages, low level of hormones as well as sleep problems. It affects more women than men, but can occur at any age. This condition is difficult to diagnose and similar to other conditions. It has many symptoms, but main symptom is pain. Symptoms usually begin after physical trauma, surgery, infection or psychological stress. In some people symptoms accumulate with no single triggering event. They will have tension headaches, Temporomandibular joint disorders, irritable bowel syndrome, anxiety and depression. There will be a constant dull ache typically arising from muscles. It can occur on both sides of the body called tender points (18 in number). They also feel tired, sleep is frequently disrupted by pain and invariably they will have sleep disorders, restless leg syndrome and sleep apnea. Causes could be genetic, infections and physical or emotional trauma, they overreact to pain signals. Certain risk factors also play a role in this like sex (female reproductive hormones), family history, rheumatoid disease or lupus. Complications may include that it leads to other conditions or diseases, interference with your ability to function at home or on the job, frustration leads to depression and health related anxiety. As far as the treatment is concerned, there is no cure for fibromyalgia; only a variety of medications can control symptoms. In addition other supportive measures like exercise, relaxation and stress reduction may help he individual and lastly one should not give hope. Hope this helps. Thank you
