Fibromyalgia- "Symptoms of a cause"

Fibromyalgia is a syndrome

Fibromyalgia is the second or third most common disorder treated by rheumatologists.    57% of RA patients and 24% of Psoriatic Arthritis patients have FM symptoms. Fibromyalgia has many symptoms in common with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and these two syndromes may turn out to be one and the same.

Associated with low dopamine / Reduce gray matter

Fibromyalgia is linked with reduced gray matter, possibly resulting from low DOPAMINE production in the areas of the brain that process pain.   According to a study published in The Journal of Pain.

Who is more likely to have fibromyalgia?

•  9 times more common among women than men.   Usually between the ages of 40 and 60

•  More common in Caucasians than other races
